No counts and due to the gene being
recessive the assumption is that all of the F1

I would like to acknowledge the hard work that Mr. Ken
Kennedy did in bringing the true nature of this gene to light
because without his contribution we may not be enjoying this
beautiful new mutation.
Based on the above information I believe it is very obvious that
this is a new mutation. It is a recessive gene on it’s own Loci
with no known Alleles at this time.
I ask at this time for The Angelfish Society to recognize and
approve the name chosen by Mr. Kenneth Kennedy.
Philippine Blue (pb).
