I just noticed that both of our clowns have markings under there eyes. I hatched one out that had a French mustache. Coolest little thin mustache.

cool, I was able to snag a few of them from Brian.
yeah, that's my only one that has the mustache. I named him Freckles.
you have a pic of the one with the French mustache? I'm not sure if I'm familiar with that. LoL

Here's what I'm talking about. The first grade A's didn't have excessive white. Just a connecting tail and body stripe. Very simple, very elegant. I like the extreme misbarring and spots and everything else people have posted but I think this is the rarest type of picasso.

very nice picasso.. actually out of all the breeding going on with picasso's, the best fry come out of a picasso parents that have this same white pattern vs being a grade b picasso and even snowcasso's , which is weird!Here's what I'm talking about. The first grade A's didn't have excessive white. Just a connecting tail and body stripe. Very simple, very elegant.

makes me wonder what ORA did with their batches that had excessive whites, like Snowcasso-type. they only came out with the above described A's and even some of their B's would have one side connecting the tail and body stripe. I'm sure ORA produced some Snowcasso-types as well but they never really came out with them. after their normal, B's, and A's, they came out with the Platinums.
here's my ORA A that I've had for almost 2 years

i know a local breeder that was breeding picassos with same markings and they had tons of A's HIGH B's,snowcassos(doni) and platniums , vs the snowcasso(doni) type being bred together which dont yeild as many grade A's and snowcasso's(doni) at all.... im curious to see what my pair will produce since i have a grade B female and a snowcasso(doni) male... i hope to get some snow babies out of the clutch, but i really dont expect it!! Im gonna start a thread on these guys maybe today or tommorrow, so we can all see the transfermation of the fry the hatch out......it'll either be good or an at least okay turnout... plus my new room is almost done just need to plug up some holes in these new tanks i have!!! woohoo

:hammer:
only if you lived closer. here's her mate that I started with. the black is more pronounce now too.
we paired the old mate to a Grade B from my breeder that have identical marking as the mommy. the B has a full helmet like my Spartan. below is pic of my Picasso's mom. they came from B Grade Picasso's from Doni.
Spartan helmet

my Picasso's came from 2 Grade B parents. Brian gets a lot of really nice A's, B-B+, and Premiums. from the batches I've seen that he hatched, I only see maybe 20-30% that are normal. most have more white than normal and have side burns and/or helmets. I'm actually looking forward to seeing his new batch. I'll be making a visit the end of the month.

Thank you.
sure do! I also have this grade B-B+ that have a full helmet. should be an awesome contrast when the black fills in. that's an awesome one! 1smile1gotta love the helmets!!!
