Just like Spider balls there is not a variance between the expression of the Visual Het and homozygous versions. They look identical.

thank you. i was under the impression that arabesque was co-dominent like motely. if a homozygous animal looks like a heterozygous animal then i guess i was wrong about being co-dominent.

Was it a guy named Steve Hammond that bred arabesque to arabesque a little while ago and posted some pics on the classifieds that he called "superarabesques?"

It is my understanding it is a codominant morph and that the supers are distinguishable from the non-supers. Although I have not seen examples to back this up.
