Parents
The smokey line is from this blushing chocolate I bought at a hobby store, and crossed with this black.

F1
This cross resulted in smokeys, golds, and blacks. Here are some pics of the smokey F1 fish.

F2
Crossing 2 of the F1 smokeys together resulted in many different phenotypes, Smokey, chocolate, gold, silver, silver ghost, blushing smokey, blushing chocolate, blushing gold, and german blue.

Here are some pics of some F2 offspring.

As can be seen in the last 4 photos, some of the fish are coming through with the wide finnage the grandfather had.

Some F2 fish have paired off, I current have a pair of blushing smokeys, which show a yellow crown. Here are photos of them.

The first photo is of the female, the second of the male.

So far, the above fish looks the most like the original blushing chocolate. I am excited that the wide fins are showing up, although not as many as I had hoped for. It takes a LONG time for the width of the fins to show up. This is the same fish as the first fish shown above in the F2 group of photos. As you can see, the fins were nowhere near this wide when it was younger.

F3
I have a pair F3 fish (offspring from the F2 pair shown above), the male has pretty wide fins, not quite like the original male, but wider then most. The other, a female, is a super veil. Here is a terrible photo of the pair, I need to get better photos soon!

As you can see, the female has quite a bit of blue in her, while the male has a more pinky/orange cast to him. My theory is the male carries a gold gene and the female does not. The offspring from this pair are 50% blushing smokey and 50% chocolate blushing. No golds in this batch at all, so at least one of the parents has no gold gene.

F4
I am currently raising babies from the above pair. I need to get some newer pictures of them. But here is a photo of them taken in June.
