Could fish number 8 (second from the last) (none / 0) (#3)
by unclescott on Thu Dec 08, 2005 at 06:25:29 AM PST

be a guppy x Endler's cross?

The last one somewhat resembles the gold (xanthic) Endler's strain I have. (Now you've done it, I may have to drag out the old camera and take a crummy photo of one.) The golds are also throwing albinos.

Actually, does that last fish have pink eyes?

Your first fish in photos 1 and 2 illustrate why show standards can limit the hobby. The IFGA standards ask that dorsal fin match the caudal or tail fin. Your second guppy does that very well. But I too really like the first fish. :)

Well as I had only bought orginaly was fancy guppies, im sure that the fish in question is definatly a guppy-endler cross, but im not sure how much of the guppy part survived through.. Just because it has the endler size and coloring and tail as some of the rest, which I am still having trouble photgraphing... Sadely I have no albino fish, as usually the pink eyes would give away, but alas not a single one.. I wounder if maybe it is the gold/blond skin type that made it that way diffrent from the other endlers, who are all a normal Skin color.. Yeah, its kinda sad that I dont have anything that would be considered a show fish, or atleast nothing that would place.. I do love fish 1 (pics 1&2) coloring the most out of all of them, but you are right and its fin's dont match up, atleast on most of my fish, and the ones that do have the same lack in the tail department, Ive even noticed on my new batch, that while a bunch of them are coming out as yellow's the top fins are coming out as blue's... Just means I have to start paying attention to whom I breed with whom, to try to get them up to show quality..
