They're gorgeous!
Are they a mix between pinks & blacks?

Nope. Parents are both marbled. The parents of these guys' parents, aka the grandparents, were marbled too. Interesting how 4 came out pure white. I thought they were eventually marble in, but that never happened.

I wonder how the marble strain starts. I have a pink/black spawn grwoing out right now, interesting to see what they will look like.

Well, the person I got these guy's parents from told me she picked out usually marble patterned convicts around her LFS whenever she would see any. She was finally able to get both a female and a male and specifically bred them for the marble gene. I guessed it worked, because here's F2. It's just like how bettas carry the marble gene.

Curious to see what your pink/black spawn will yield too!
