I'll leave that to the papered...
>What about Hybredisation ? It is acceptable to cross breed same species

Depends what you want... if you want a colourful mongrel, go for it. If you
want something that no self-respecting Rainbowfish owner would feed to his
or her cat, then it probably isn't a good move. Once a person has a rep for
hybridisation, it may be hard to lose... Hybrids are anathema to serious
bowheads, they sort of defeat the purpose of keeping the various species at
all - hybridisation does have it's place in controlled scientific
experimentation.
>Where do ANGFA stands on the issue of cross breeding ?
I am not a Committee-person of any branch of ANGFA, Richard, but from past
experience my guess is that they won't be favourable to the concept at all! :)

"Then the time comes when it is clear nothing new or important will
be done: and one draws out the ledger and begins to itemise what
there is, of value, that can be offered to posterity. And here is
a good deed, and there an act of courage: during this year one worthy
story was told, during that decade involvement in an important social
movement. If there are babies, that is logged in. If there are books,
they are noted. Loving friends. Wives and husbands. Kindness to
small animals. A hill bearing your name. But the laurels you've counted
on, they've turned to dust."
