Would there be a chance of breeding laevis and borealis?
X. borealis is a beautiful species, I have seen them for sale at Nasco too. You asked a good question. There have been only 4 cases of interspecific hybrids that have occurred naturally:

  1. X. laevis and X. gilli
  2. X. muelleri and X. laevis
  3. X. borealis and X. victorianus
  4. X. fraseri and X. tropicalis

Since X. victorianus is similar to X. laevis, I think a hybrid between X. laevis and X. borealis is quite possible.
