Breeding Orchid and Indigo dottybacks...

[afboundguy]

I know the Orchid and the striped dottyback have been breed to create the Indigo dottyback but has anyone had success breeding with an Orchid and a Indigo dottyback?

I have tried to breed the orchids. But never with the Indigo. I would be curious to see if anyone has. I've found the dottybacks to be difficult as the larvae are very small (smaller than clownfish larvae) and have a very specialized diet when first born.

Does anyone know if Indigos are even fertile? I am guessing they are since I see them for sale a lot but someone in my local club brought up a good point that there is a chance they'd be infertile but guessing they aren't as that mean they'd be reliant on an orchid and striped dottyback only and to me that would mean they'd be significantly more expensive on the market...
