L075, L124, L301 crossbreed

[gizulon]

Hi,
Can L075, L124, L301 crossbreed?

[nvcichlids]

Yes, technically they can crossbreed with L134 and any other Peckoltia

Nice? Surely NOT nice....

Hi,

L75, L 124 and L 301 all belong to the same species, so "form-hybrids" are possible. But I highly doubt they would ever crossbreed with P. compta, mainly for one reason: sabaji is not as closely related to the Peckoltia sensu stricto as the name suggests, of which the type species is P. vittata, its not for fun that many people call these fishes Ancistomus instead of Peckoltia, but time and patience will show.

I assume you mean can a L75 male and L301 female have fry or whatever other ones...... and the answer is yes. They aren't actually different fish but just slightly different color forms (and in my experience slighty differ in size too or that may just be my pairs??). So they wouldn't really be a "cross" but it would be nice to try and only breed L75 with another L75 and L124 with L124 and so if you ask me.

They would. "Crosses" or hybrids can occur on different systematic levels: Genera, species, and also distinct populations or phenotypes from different locations.

I stand corrected.... thank you for the clarification.
