Hello how can u get a ctpk do you breed a hmpk male and a ct female or a ct male or a hmpk female or how?
-
im curios about this..since i also plan to have CTPKs..what do you do after F1? do you cross them back to either parent? or do you inbreed? or do you have another F1 of CT and PK cross which are unrelated and you cross them to each other?
-
Nice betta ever how did u get them how many times do u breed the parents??
-
wait so after u breed the ctpk for first time then u inbreed the siblings rite to get the 2nd generation

my crowntail plakat's rays are curling up.... please help me how to prevent that.... need help

@czoe2011 Sometimes rays curl because the water is too dirty or because the pH is off. Try doing more water changes and see if that fixes things.

I always breed the siblings (F1xF1, F2xF2, etc) rather than crossing back to parents. It's the only way to get the CTPK trait (takes about 4-5 gens. of inbreeding)
it would definitely help to have a second unrelated CTPK line going to interbreed, but that takes tons of space for all those fish...
This is a really fun tail type to try to create. If you are interested I would definitely go for it.

It takes 2 generations to get CTPK, but they are usually not very nice. It takes about 5 generations to get really good CTPK, with good webbing reduction in dorsal, caudal, and anal fin. The caudal is the hardest to get right, especially in males. These CTPK are the fourth generation of this line, and the male still doesn't have a nice caudal. The fifth generation is growing up now in my fish room and is looking really great.
