anyone know guppy color genetics? (HBmale x SSfemale?)

I never did get myself to look deeply into how to selectively breed guppies for desired colors.

There's a fish store near me who apparently breeds beautiful HB red/blue with huge delta tails and large dorsals, with the skyblue color at the base of the tail and cherry red on the rest.. they breed around 95% true, but sells them for only 3 dollars each. It's an amazing deal, but I already have my yellow/green snakeskin line (unfortunately, not much of a strain, since they only breed around 60% true).

So I was wondering what kind of appearance will turn up from breeding a HB male to a SS female, or an SS male to a HB female?
Would the true HB help with making a more consistent strain (though changed appearance) compared to the SS I have now? Will it completely dominate the SS body pattern and just make HB?

 

It seems as if the links both don't work.

 

Woops, fixed it!

 

... Is it just me, or did my first post glitch out somehow and got deleted? ._.

 

Yeah, I'm not seeing your first post. What was your question?

 

I posted it again, but now a moderator has to approve it first... hm. :\

 

Ah, it may be because you put a link on your first ever post. our AntI Spam Bot system may have deleted stuff.

Spammers like to create accounts and posts links.
