Ok, I bought a gup from Walmart...ok ok I know, mistake number one.  Well, I've never seen one quite like it.  



It has teh body shape size and soem of the color on the tail.  Well, it is half blue.  Yeah, like a half black, but only blue.  Well, it has yellow around its lips and pectoral fins.  The scales on the tail of the fish right before the fin are all tipped white.  It has some green, red, yellow, and almost bronzy color just behind the gills.  In all, its probably the most colorful fish I've ever owned.  Oh yeah, its dorsal fin nearly extents out past the caudal fin!!!  Its a pretty wacky looking fish.  I've always figured it to be a mutt guppy and so far it can't successfully get a female pregnant..(thats why I have the post up for a virgin female, I want to breed him if it is possible).  Well, I was searching aquabid today for some females and I happened to come across a fish that well, doesnt do mine justice (I'm biased) but is undoubtedly from the same strain...funny, I always thought mine was a mutt.  Anyway, here is the picture of the fish, could anyone tell me a little about the strain?

Is this fish a good strain to have?

Thanks,

I had one very similar to that pic, except the only black on his tail was around the outside border.  He grew very large too.  At the time, I couldn't keep a female alive for him so unfortunately he was not able to pro-create.  Although he did try with my balloon mollies...
