toughchicken Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 I am looking to purchase some BLUE guppies for breeding, preferably a breeding trio. Currently have light blue guppies but the strain appears to be quite weak, as yellows constantly come up trumps. Also just curious if anyone is breeding Blue Moscow Guppies or similar in NZ?

T Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 I think you might be able to buy some Mosow male from holliwood fish farm for $12.95. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toughchicken Posted October 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Thanks for that T! We had seen them, we got there within 30 minutes of them getting them in the shop, but Hollywood (Mt R.) had already put all the nice ones to one side :evil: :evil: :evil: , the ones left showed a pale yellow in their blue/purple tales. So we decided to hold fire, and keep looking. :-? Also saw the ones that Albany had and they did not look in any condition for purchase.

PENEJANE Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 I don't know if they are still there but I saw some moscow blue males on trademe for sale. I don't know if the auction is finished or not but you could try there. I sill don't have any blues yet myself but my husband has finaly let me set up another tank! YAY to house my blue/black males and selected females for line breeding. So maybe I can get some solid black bubbas soonish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toughchicken Posted October 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Home-living/Pets-animals/Fish/Fish/auction-37898174.htm The auction was withdrawn; they do look like nice guppies! But there were no females to keep the strain going, so not really much point, in buying them. We hopefully have some nice ones on the way soon, fingers crossed!

T Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 me is hoping to get some blue and black guppies too Had high hope on that one on trademe but the auction was withdrawn doupt that we will get solid blue or black males and especially females from holliwood Might have to import some eh :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 I still would have bought them if i had, had the oppurtunity, just because there are no females doesn't mean you can't use, nuetral virgins, do some selective breeding and go from there.
