Hi. I have a science fair project that is due NEXT May.

I wanted to do something with fish. Maybe.. Getting a type of fish that can breed with different colors of the same species. And see what percentage of them are what color. Or... Recording certain "mutations" in various types of fish.
I wanted to know if anyone else has done this?
If you have, what you did?

If you know stuff about fish, what types of fish would be the most fun for this experiment?
ANY information on this would be appreciated! Thank you, and God bless!
by recording certain "mutations" in various types of fish, i meant over generations of fish.

Either platies, guppies, or endlers would be great. Just get a platy, such as a Red Wag Platy and cross it with a different color variation, such as a twin bar or tiger platy.

I would do it with platies before guppies as usually there are all different color variations together in the guppy tanks, but platies are sometimes separated.

Good Luck and God Bless!
