Bloods are beautiful on their own, same with balls. I don't find the superballs more beautiful than their individual species. Personally I don't recommend hybridizing any species, it just clouds the blood lines and makes it difficult to ensure pure species.

Once you create a hybrid, all offspring of that hybrid are hybrids and it takes a very long time to 'breed out' the foreign dna. What really makes things complicated is not everybody is a honest breeder and will sell hybrids as pure...often to people who just don't know how to recognize a hybrid, especially when that hyrid looks more like one of the parent species, instead of a blend.
