Is this open to the public or just clubs/vendors?
Yes and I offer my apologies for highjacking your thread. Let us continue with your initial intent for this thread.
Just to be clear I am not suggesting we emphasize phenotype over genotype. I do however think we should take an active role in phenotype naming for two main reasons. That being educational purposes...
Jon we are on the same page basically, I just think it should show all three together. Why make someone go searching for answers. I think our next meeting should be to discus the foundation of how we...
I don't think anyone ever said anything about getting rid of the genotype naming so I don't understand why you feel the need to keep driving that point. Comments have been made that it is redundant...
Nope and I also stated that over in the other thread. I stated that I thought 3 things are needed in the calculator to help all levels of experience. That being gene code, genotype and phenotype.
...
I said this over in the other thread but in my opinion the "phenotype" name should describe what the eye sees, plain and simple. I think too many people are trying to combine the genotype name into...
In my opinion...... YES!
in regards to "Phenotype" naming the term Marble should be used to describe what te eye sees regardless if it comes from M or Gm. What the eye sees is a random marble...
I used a calculator that is no longer available online and there were only two things I looked at. That being the gene code and phenotype name because thats what everyone used, not the genotype name....
I totally agree with this! This is the point I was trying to make. The genotyoe name in most cases is just a simple regurgitation of the gene code and I don't know anyone that uses it. The majority...
Awesome!!!!!
This is going nowhere and we each have a different view. Let's just agree to disagree. When the time comes we will let the majority speak.

I disagree, when it comes to Phenotype naming it is not necassary to describe what gene the marbling comes from or use the gene in the name at all, thats what the Genotype name is for.
It is more...
Once again we are talking Phenotype here, not Genotype. The genes involved, the gene names or the number of genes needed to achieve a phenotypical look is irrelevant. What matters is what the eye...
So then we should change Gold Marble to Marbled Gold too?
How is Platinum Marble any different than Gold Marble? It's the same fish with two doses of pb. One has a gold base and is marbled and...
I couldn't agree more!
Jon just to clarify, when a call it a Plat Marble I am referring to the Phenotype name, Genotype name is still open ended and something that the standards committe needs to work on.
Hmmmmmm ........
Just jumped in on this thread and everyone is making some valid points. With that being said there is a lot that we must consider in regards to names and the calculator. It was...

Yes they hold one gallon
Another alternative to the rearing jar is this hang on breeder box. I have used them for a couple years now and have had great success. I use a 2" wide piece of slate in my breeder tanks and just...
This is a characteristic that is very difficult to get a good picture of as you know. This is one of the breeders and as you can see it has glitter everywhere on the body except where the stripes...
TasV welcome to the forum!
I have bred a lot of fish with the Philippine Blue gene and know how it interacts with all the other genes very well.
What questions do you have?
I have taken two almost 100% coverage glitter individuals and spawned them numerous times and in each spawn I would see a standard bell curve distribution within each spawn.
