fishtal

I look forward to meeting you as well. It's going to be a great event. I didn't go last year but I did go to the one in Atlanta and had a blast! Thanks for the kind words about my site. I still need to work on the Seahorse pages, I've just been really busy since I got them.

Yup, That would be me. Not many Tal's in the fish world, LOL. Yes, MP and I were talking about similar things. Pretty interesting stuff. I will be at MACNA for sure. Got my ticket and room, just need to get air and spending $. It will be great to get together and chat over the weekend. Have you heard about the Marine Breeding Initiative yet? You should check it out. It's a great way to document your breeding progress and see what others are doing. LMK if you have any questions, Tal

Dave, Thanks for the info! Too bad you couldn't make it to the Workshop, it turned out great. You can see more info and pics from the event on this page: http://www.masm.org/mForums/tm.aspx?m=33444 I was lucky enough to host both Matt's at my place for the weekend. They are both such cool people. It was fun to talk fish with them in person and in my home for a whole weekend. I'm still geeked about it. I had a good conversation with MP about the genetics involved with the Picasso offspring. Tal

Hi there, Matt Pedersen turned me on to this thread. He was just at my place last weekend for the MASM Breeder's Workshop. I have a Picasso pair that I'm breeding as well and we were discussing the different types of offspring. In your pics of the juveniles, approximately how old are they? Have you noticed any difference in how quickly the normal A. percula offspring (from Picasso parents) get their stripes? In my first batch I only had 2 survivors and they both turned out to be Platinums. The next batch is about 3 weeks old and I can tell which ones will be Platinums but the rest I'm not sure about yet.
