So my new gorgeous betta boy (Spook) is an opaque white color VT, I was wondering what color female i should aim to breed him with , and what i should definately avoid!
Thanks again!

Opaque will muddle up cellophane or white (tried it ) so maybe go with opaque or platinum?

even if you were going to breed him with a white female most of the babies would have wash, being red,or gray. the male probably isn't a complete white mask, but should give nice young. i would breed it to a red female to get cambodians and work with a butterfly line(always one of my favorites).

This is one of Joep's fish. A little white platinum. Its a metallic colour, like copper.



You could go cambodian, and you would probably get nice fish out of it, but cambo VTs aren't that common, at least not around here, and i've not seen many photos of them either.
