That pairing could yield........

Normals Dbl Het for Snow
Anery Het Albino
Albino Het Anery
Salmons Het for Moonglow (Triple Hets)
Ghost het for albino
Sunglows Het Anery
And Moonglows.

I did that in my head, so I could be off a little. The percentages don't mean a thing. Statistical probability is all they are worth. It's all up to how the gene pairs combine.

where did the salmon come from? I thought that was a co-dom gene? I'm all screwed up now

Didn't mean to screw you up any. LOL

I think if people referred to Salmons as Salmons, (like the guy who created them) instead of referring to them as Hypos, (which the orange tails are usually called), it would be less confusing for a lot of people.

And a Salmon is a Dominant mutation. If it was Codominant, the Supers would be sold as Supers, and not possible Supers. You would see the difference right away, as with other Codominant mutations.
