[snailheave]

the one with black color is an offspring of an older cross litter?
or you are showing the eggs as the offspring?

 

[bang guy]

Yep.

 

[snailheave]

have you successfully crossed a darwin with a true perc?

 

[bang guy]

I don't have any Percs, just Ocellaris.

Okay so the scientist in me is dying to know: When you breed a black ocellaris with an orange one, does one color dominate in the offspring?

[snailheave]

Looks like neither color is dominant. It's turning out to be about 50/50.

Percula is a different species than Ocellaris. Don't confuse common names with species names.

in the wild, and sometimes in captivation, they cross breed and produce... percullaris! :thinking:

Their area in the wild don't overlap a far as I know. I have seen offspring of their hybrid though and some can be quite striking. All of their hybrids are sterile though. Try a search on Jigsaw Clownfish.
