Halfblack
Blushing
Multiple Locus Phenotype
Non-wild
alleles that interact to form this phenotype:
Halfblack (h), Stripeless
(S)

A halfblack
blushing angelfish is homozygous for both the halfblack allele and the
stripeless allele, and has the following genotype.
h/h – S/S
A halfblack
blushing does not have the vertical body stripe or the vertical black
stripe through the eye as seen in a halfblack. In young juvenile the
gill area will exhibit the typical circular pink area seen in blushing
angelfish. The dorsal fin will be absent of any horizontal striations
and the tail will not have any of the lacy patterning of a non-blushing halfblack.
