when you cross a phenotypic normal male (possibly a bit hypermelanistic) with a phenotypic salmon female (is it hypo if she still has black?) ??

Both are rescues, as is our other adult female-- who is a phenotypic normal. The babies from Her clutch were all pretty normal looking...no one with Daddy's darkness. There was one I wish we could have kept as she was a bit light actually with larger spacing between the saddles.

Any chance at all that we'll get some salmon in our babies, or is that purely recessive and therefore would only be in the next generation?
