German Blue Rams crossed with Gold Rams

[IndianaSam]

Does anyone know what a cross between a German Blue Ram and a Gold Ram looks like?

I had a pair spawn recently and I can't find any pictures that will tell me what the offspring will look like.

Is the "blue" coloring purely dominant over the "gold" coloring or will it be a blending of traits?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Think I found the answer here.

Does anyone have any pictures that they could share?

I will stick by my previous answer. The blue is definitely dominant over the xanthistic (yellow) morph, so you will most likely get mostly blues with some blue/yellows & a very few yellows. Breeding offspring to each other will probably produce a few more yellows in the next spawn.

Yeah, I was definately thinking that you were right vs. the "brown" answer.

Anyway, I'm going to raise this spawn and see what comes of it. I'll pick out the fry that I think are the best looking and breed them to see if I can get anything interesting.

Likely goes along the same lines as gold angels. Gold is recessive and you MUST have each parent carry one gold gene to produce any gold babies.

Two golds produce all golds....both carry 2 gold genes. I had a silver pair produce 3/4 silver and 1/4 gold. (angels that is) Each of my silvers carried one gold gene, but silver is dominant so they look like silver angels.
