Insect Direct Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Ive got some guppies which appear to have like a swordtail, some at the bottom of the tail some top and bottom. Anyone else got some of these I havent seen them around before??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 They obviously have top and bottom swords in their genes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HummingBird Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Yeah I've got some awesome looking top & bottom swords that I got off StevesKillies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keri Anne Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 I have a really nice male with (small) double swordtail which I got for his red cardial fin. - If I can't buy a solid red line I will build one. Also one of my halfblack males is showing a bottom sword which looks interesting consdering the male I started the line with had a top sword but have not seen the trait in any offspring. Nice tail colours too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsarmina Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 i have one really odd one. if you hold your hand out on its side, thumb up, the take away your middle and little fingers, thats wht it looks like. its not ripped or wasting away. he has a proper, though short, clear tail with the three "swords" coming from it that are almost snakeskin. hard to get a pic, but will see what i can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsarmina Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 will have to wait. as he is the only one like this, i would have to set up a breeding tank specifically for him and some girls, and both my tanks are full of betta fry at the moment. will let you know if and when i get round to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
