Any articles on Bristlenose Genetics?

Post by mellor21 »

Does anyone know of any articles or write-ups on bristlenose genetics? Like which traits are dominant (longfin/normal, blue-eye, etc) or about mixing different colors? I know hybridization is frowned upon, but I'm curious about it and haven't really been able to find anything on my own.

There are plenty of threads on the forum about genetics.

Just search for "Ancistrus genetics" <http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/sear ... s+genetics>.
