Dieter Kempkens gave me this photo sent with the impressive lady. Zumindest ist es der eindeutige Beweis, dass Moskau Blau auch über X vererbt werden kann. At least there is clear evidence that Moscow may be inherited blue X on it. Es soll ja Einzelne geben, die das noch nicht wissen! Apparently, there are individuals who do not know that! Interessant ist auch die Verlängerung der Afterflosse Also interesting is the extension of the anal fin
Moscow is independed group of genes. It is not gene of color (for example, blue).
It is group of genes - location of big spot on front of body, Base body color gene specific genotype, Red spot on the peduncle and Fancy tail and fins form.
Moscow Female on your foto have Hypermrlanism gene. She can have Full Blue phenotype bot under the Black pigments you can not see it.
My friend gets Moscow male fry when he crosses male snakeskin to female Moscow. He has for many years. Another friend gets motile Moscow "metal head" pigment in his male snakeskin fry when male snakeskin is taken to female Moscow.
No. Part gens are autosomal (hypermelanism, form of tail also) - but may be it is XY-linked. We must test it.

Another friend gets motile Moscow "metal head" pigment in his male snakeskin fry when male snakeskin is taken to female Moscow. Is this hypermelanism gene the answer?
