purplecatfish Posted May 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 The white ones are my new strain that I'm working on. I had a snow guppy appear one generation back and I crossed her with one of the blue tailed blondes. The fry have a black tail fin and are just starting to show blue highlights on the tail/body. They have normal eyes with a gold ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplecatfish Posted May 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 The grey male with blue body and tail is the grandfather of a lot of the blue tail blondes. He's got a red spot in his tail. The blond male with the red tail is the last of a potential strain I was thinking about but I decided to go for the bue tail as I haven't seen anything in the shops like it. They haven't been line bred as I wanted to use the survival of the fittest strategy. However I'm thinking of giving up on guppies as they create a lot of work.

Peter McLeod Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Looks like you have the right fish to continue with. Blues and reds cross together very well, and faily easy to separate the colours over a few generations, and would make a very good sister strain to outcross to if separated by a few generations. Would be a shame for you to give them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
