ok well im thinking of adding a shtct female to my collection and i was wondering what the offspring would be im thinking that all the babies will be shtct 100% het for trmper albino. also if i raise one of those up and breed back to the trmper sunglow what would the offspring be i think there would be 50% tremper sunglows and 50% shtct ph for tremper albino

I understand a shtct would be the mother, but what would be the other parent? If you breed to a tremper sunglow then yes, you will have normals/tangerines het tremper. You have to remember that all because a tangerine is a dominant trait, doesnt mean all babies will be a tangerine. You will have a good amount of normals in the mix as well. Either way, shtct het tremper x tremper sunglow = tremper sunglows and normals.

Not sure if I agree 100% here. A true sunglow is SHTCTB and Tremper albino. If you want to get SHTCTB het Tremper offspring you should cross a SHTCTB X Sunglow. If you get good tangerine blood for both parents then in the vast majority of crosses all the offspring will be tangerine. And yes the cross you suggest is pretty much spot on. That's what I suggest you do from the get go. SHTCTB het Tremper X Sunglow. That way you get 50% Sunglow and 50% SHTCTB het Tremper. Reap your rewards sooner! ;) Just make sure you select animals with good color, no spotting on the head, and nice carrot tails and you should be fine.
