    I am starting a 20 gallon nano soon, which will limit the amount of livestock. I would like to have Clowns along with Black and White Clowns which i would like to begin breeding.

    I was wondering if i purchase 1 Perc along with 1 Black and White Perc if they would mate making it unecessary to purchase 2 of each and decrese my bioload.

    Can I have my cake and eat it too?

    Also, if it is possible what would the fry be like? some black , some orange?

    um.. i think you can.... im not sure though.
    i remember someone talking about it and saying it was possible.
    the end result being a mixture between black and orange.
