PENEJANE Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 That is very similar to the snakeskin that I got from the LFS a month or two ago. Its body patter follows down into its tail but mine isn't as solid yellow as yours. Depending on the angle you look at mine it can look anywhere from a orange/yellow colour to a yellow/green colour. I have tried to take pictures of it but its just not possible as I just can't get close enough with my camera to take a clear picture. I currently have mine with my yellow/golden females One has had babies so hopefully next drop of fry I hope to have some snakeskins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Well its not a flash male guppy but I did manage to get some lovely half black females with purple/black tails. I have got another tank set up and hoping to get another two 2ft tanks in the christmas holidays (YAY!!!). I am putting these females with my two solid blacks and hope to get some cool colours. Well heres a pic of the females but you can only see the purple in one female (due to angle, they are fighting over the bristlenose sinking tab). cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toughchicken Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 :bounce: :bounce: Looking good PENEJANE!!! She doesn’t look to dissimilar to the bulk of our females (grey blue tail), which we plan to go with our Black Snakeskins (currently in good hands until we setup), will have to wait and see what is produced with this crossover. A busy summer for us once finished Uni. we have to set up our two tanks sitting on the floor (2ft & 4ft). Still waiting on stands, have to paint the backs of tanks, then hope to get three nice planed tanks and some kind of breeding plan for our Guppies up and running in a very minor way. Anyway I hope the breeding of your black guppies goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Cheers for that I am hoping to produce more black/blues and now maybe purple if it comes through. I am getting two more 2ft tanks like I already have. One for the fry to grow out in, one for my blacks and one for the rest. I have got females that have yellow/blue/blue,green/red,blue/black/purple tails. I am starting to get some very nice coloured youngsters which I might put up on trademe over the next month once they are a little bigger.

caserole Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 wow, DX there very pretty. do they breed true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DX Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 To caserole: Yes. the female had about 50 babies on 13th of Oct. They are doing well and have started colouring. But really hard to get good photo for those little guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted October 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Looks different, i must say orange is rare in females, very nice guppys, so it runs more or less true then? Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DX Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Looks different, i must say orange is rare in females, very nice guppys, so it runs more or less true then? Shae The real fish is not that orange actually. I guess it is because of the backgroud and perhaps the lighting. :oops: "Breed true" is a new term for me. I just did search and got a definition: A phenotype for a simply-inherited trait is said to breed true if two parents with that phenotype produce offspring of that same phenotype exclusively. I suppose I could find out only when their offsprings grow up. Right? Anyway, here are what I have now: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserole Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Well we all learn new things every day. this is something for you to learn:- if they do breed true(or close) I would like some :lol: as Shae said they are different, very interesting colouration good luck growing the bab's. If you need need advise on growing guppys very fast this is the place to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandS Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I finaly got a good pic of one of my guppys I have been working with these for about a year now, and they have been breeding true for about 4 months. I have recently found another male of simaler colour, so i have put him with my females, but am expecting a few throw backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
