All kidding aside,
It seems that you have been on the forum long enough to know about the Cyclone line, frankly Im surprised you have not spoke up until now.
There has been controversy surrounding the Cyclone project since I started working with it in 2004. Ill recap a little for those who have not been watching....
The Cyclone trait or line is my line of animals that I have worked with to produce aberrant high color animals that passes genetically in the first generation to varied degrees.
I produced a litter in 2005, one of my first "morph" litters, using an Ihle Salmon male(with an aberrant pattern) bred to a really nice "normal" female. The male was produced in 2002 by Ihle by breeding a salmon to a Hardy line orangetail hypo. This first litter produced some very nice hypos with great color and very nice aberrancies. Some of the babies had the aberrant pattern from the dad.
I also bred the same male to another female that year. I got a few small aberrancies in the litter just not as nice as the first litter. The next year I produced 2 more litters with the same male, one with the one of the same females as the year before and one "new" female. Once again I produced a decent number of high color and aberrant patterned babies.....
I continued this and in 2008 I produced two litters with two siblings from the 2005 litter and a half sibling female...
