goodnight aquarist of thailand

 As the title suggests, I am looking for information on creating the balloon fish.
 I discovered that it is Thailand that has created this fish.

 I'm not here to judge, I just want to understand how it was created.

 Thank you for your help

ปลาบอลลูน

yes and all species (molly, ram, cichlid, betta ...)

I seek the history of the first balloon fish.
 Who creates it?

I think this is a selection in breeding but I have a doubt  [งง].

Thank you

The Info about how to create the Balloon Fish

They never give some info about this fish for marketing reason

[Tyrano34]

thank you, I'll ask professionals

 here is already an answer

For my part, I think they are involved in the growth of eggs / embryos, by refusing, or inhibiting certain hormones at different stages of growth.

 Because it is a distortion, and I do not think it is genetic for all species.
 This is a opinion of "biologist" but I have not done any research on this phenomenon that we do more promoting this type of fish.

I will ask all breeders of the world Than I know.

On forum peru,  I saw a story of a fish  farmer in Brazil who delves very big on the style balloon
I will ask my friend peruvian if he wants though I show the pictures of these fish balloon.

balloon fish is 'molly' but breed with 'disabled' body. The fish spin is shorter than usual, as they call 'short body fish'. The main point is 'short body fish' is more expensive than normal fish, so, the breeder began to breed them for sale.
well, ballon fish = molly short body. [on_062]

LOL, sometimes, Thai explanation is easier to understand than those professional biologists. I like the way she explains.  You just put freaky fish together to create a new one. And THAT'S IT !!!

So the story of genetically intervention it's an information false?

It's impressive to see so many species of the shape balloon.

The last case I saw was the betta balloon.
