Corals were derived sporadicly from one individual in an F1 litter of morph x normal.
Salmons were derived sporadicly from one individual in an F1 litter of morph x normal.
(When I say "sporadicly" I just mean that it was not selectively bred to produce the bloodline)
F1 litters, especially the matriarch litters, have the most genetic variation. You can take each of those F1 babies and examine them.. seperate them into distinct phenotypes.. and have many distinguishable bloodlines.
Salmons branched off of one while Gee's branched off of another. So Gee's line didnt come from Salmons. The matriarch to the Gee line was a sibling to the matriarch to the Salmon line. They both come from the same original line but they are seperate F1 lines (F1 is significant because thats where the most genetic variation is).
