Phil Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Found these guys today and couldnt leave without some. I have wanted these for ages so got a few. They dont show up in the pics very well but the colours are neon electric. Quite amazing. Cheers Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VickiPS Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Excellent, Phil! I'm envious. Where did you find them? Did they come from one of the big wholesalers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 I assume they did since they were in a large aquarium store. but, Abbey tells me that when she has seen them before that finding females was the problem and they had probably an equal number or males and females so they could possibly be local bred ones. If i could get them to you i would go get some and send them up Vicki!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted December 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Apparently they are relatives of the guppy, not guppies :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 i had some a while ago, but also had trouble sourcing females, i had one iffy female who was kinda fat and the right shape for a female but had male colours, long story short, my betta jumped the divider and ate them all.... there are a few different varieties, berry has some as well but hers had larger extentions on the caudal fin anyway, good luck with them, hopefully they breed successfully for you!!

(guppy aficiandos need not correct me - it's a 'Phil and Lil' joke) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
