I'll agree with you totally on that one. So many people have corals for sale and they don't have a hint of coral coloration, they just expect it to coral up because maybe one of the parents is coral or they have been told it was a coral and so on. I'll agree with you on the lipstick stuff, but I appreciate a well established bloodline that has offspring which produce the same results. Whether the animals have the "lipstick" expression people are looking for, they can still be traced back to the bloodline and may still be capable of producing "lipstick" results whether they express that color or not. I just think it is important to keep track of the bloodline to know just how much lipstick influence may be involved or if it is a random act altogether. Really it makes no difference what you call them. Those sunglows are outstanding, and for people who don't care about the lineage of their animals it doesn't matter. I'd just hate to see someone pick up a related lipstick animal, produce killer sunglows, and then try to call them their own bloodline. For instance, the Doug Matusak's sharp sunglows use orangetail hypos rather than salmons and if people lost track of that others might assume that all sharp sunglows are comparible on the same level when there are specific differences. It is important to keep track of that in the long run wouldn't you think.
