Is this what it looks like?

Right, so breed the hybrid offspring back to a tetrataenia, and selectively breed the ones with the most favorable coloring. I'm not suggesting that merely cross breeding will solve all the problems in the first generation, or even that the results will be perfect...

Out of curiosity, have you seen multiple examples like the one above? I'm a bit curious if that is really what can be expected or if that is just one incident.

I have seen a few, but not many examples of tetra x infernalis hybrids. None of them have looked "right".

If we're going to start selective breeding for tetrataenia looks, why not start from pure infernalis? It's not like there's really a need to involve tetrataenia at all.
