HOW TO PRODUCE A RED TEXAS

.As Breeder always use Green Texas and color fish such as Red Parrot and Red Devil. Red Texas receives nice pearl from father and red color from mother.

However, one lot of babies can come out in two major colors:-Green Flesh This group receives more genetic from father. It will have nice pearl but its skins have none or less chance to peel off so it will not come out red. This color is not popular.

Red Flesh This has major genetic from mother so it has more chance in changing color. However, not every red flesh can change color into the red or orange-red which is very popular. After the peel off period, the color may show in yellow or pinkish-white by KNT Farm.
