As far as I know, there are two different lines of this mutation. The coral glows that were produced by Nerd and the Bananas that were produced by Will Slough. I don't know if they've been proven to be compatible, but they sure look the same to me... The coral glows were produced by Kevin when he bred his import White smoke male and produced a couple of females. The Bananas were produced when Will bred a male clown to his import banana female producing a number of banana het clowns (also all female) I can't remember if it was 4 or 5 that he produced. In both cases the mutation was produced in the first generation proving that it was at least dominant but as far as I know, the mutation hasn't been bred back to itself so it wouldn't be possible to know if it was also co-dominant or not. I know that for the first few years at least no males were produced but the whole project has gone kind of hush hush since then so it's hard to get any information.
Besides Kevin and Will, there aren't many people who own this mutation. Doug Matuszak was mentioned and I know that Brock Wagner has a couple. Here is a pic I took of a Banana Clown that Brock picked up at Tinley Park this last October.
I sure hope these guys get busy and start producing a lot more of these soon. It's a beautiful mutation and I'd like to be able to get one myself someday.

Actually, I believe that Will Slough has produced Several bananas from the original import female he bought in Daytona many years ago. Somewhere I've got a picture of the original clutch he produced from breeding her to a male clown. He posted the picture himself on Kingsnake many years ago.
