it's not HRA. you'll find it listed as lace black back on WOBP. green pastel is the european name for the gene, but to me, it just sounds better (and is easier to say) than lace black back.

Thnx for clearing that up I would of thought them as the same gene and I also thought lace black backs where a different morph but now I know :)

Nice looking pair. Looking forward to seeing what you do with them in the future.

just to further illustrate the difference, here's a few morphs for visual aid

super green pastel:

red axanthic:

and here is green pastel mixed with HRA (which does not look like either of the two super forms above):
