That is what I understand and the only tank that the Pintos are showing up is my tank with Tibees and my TB. I now have about 12 Pintos from 2 different drops but there could be more as some are very tiny. It's exciting because the girls are berried again so I'm looking forward to seeing what turns up. So when the babies are breeding age I guess I breed them back to a TB but I will also try breeding them to each other - it's all a big learning curve and it's exciting because you never know exactly what you get!
hopefully someone will answer your questions so we both know where to go from here but from what I have read and what BB has said the TB is the way to go.
