glofish and neon mice are like apples and oranges compared to this. those are genetically engineered animals and you KNOW what you are buying.

all it takes with hybrids like this (assuming they are fertile) is for someone to breed em down to the point where it could be passed off as either species, then be sold as that species, when in reality it isn't. then someone breeds it and so on and so forth and while they think they are producing balls, they are really producing mutts and "infecting" the gene pool with a retic or burm or w/e

nature is nature, it can do what it wants, just because they wont see the wild does not mean we should force hybridize them just for the fun of it. i also think comparing a few mutated genes that naturally occur in a single species with a hybrid of two species is just a horribly gross analogy, it's no where near the same thing
