12 1/2 Inches. Splitting the difference between BG and RES of that length, I got 140% RW.

One main thing Mr. Theo doesn't know is which specie was the male parent and which one was the female parent. This feature has been shown to be important for the best hybrids of BG X GSF and it is probably a factor in BG X RES hybrids to produce the more beneficial hybrid sunfish.
Au contraire, at least originally. Back in 2008-2010, I put 47 male BG in with a breeding population of RES. Of course, with all the Fx offspring and potential back crosses, anything goes.
