I have a genetics question too

I want to buy some trip het moonglows and was wondering what else I would get from their breeding? What is the difference between snows and moons and what exactly produces them? Any other input is always appreciated. Thanks

If you were to breed TH to Th you could get( I dont know percents though)

possible Dom moonglow
poss dom sunglow 66% het anery
poss dom ghost 66% het albino
snow
anery 66% het albino
albino 66% het anery
hypo 66% het snow
and normals 66% het snow

Moonglows are a combo of the hypo(dom or co-dom gene), anery(recessive) and albino(recessive). Snow is a combo of anery and albino. Keep in mind that is only if you hit the odds like they are supposed to happen. You could get any number of these or some not at all. You could end up with a litter of Th and DH and no visuals of any kind or you could get all visuals and no normals/TH's.

salmon het albino het anerythristic AKA TH moonglow X salmon het albino het anerythristic AKA TH moonglow -->
27/64 salmon (AKA hypo)
9/64 salmon, anerythristic (AKA ghost)
9/64 salmon, albino (AKA sunglow)
3/64 salmon, albino, anerythristic (AKA moonglow)
9/64 normal
3/64 anerythristic
3/64 albino
1/64 albino, anerythristic (AKA snow)

The babies that are not albinos or a combination that includes albino have a 66% probability of being heterozygous albino.

The babies that are not anerythristics or a combination that includes anerythristic have a 66% probability of being heterozygous anerythristic.
