I have to admit, I have not been following this, because I'm not really into fancy guppies. But, even as someone who typically doesn't appreciate them, I think the male at the top of that 6th photo down is striking! The concentric nature of the pattering on his tail reminds me of some of my favorite zoa polyps. He's very eye catching. Well done, sir! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PineSong Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 They are fantastic, I am sure they will sell well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 Happy when the Guppies I’m culling are pretty, healthy, but just not the colors I’m wanting. These move outside to the mutt-guppy tub… 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Folk Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) Well, these lovely Blue Dragon females are more than ready to see some fellas… So, I’ve decided to reach just outside their gene pool and order in three Musketeers from this line… I’m dreaming of a blue colony someday… Edited September 23, 2022 by Fish Folk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PineSong Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Whoa, if those are your culls, you are indeed a rockstar at quality control. The tank looks great. I'm sad to be wrapping up my mutt guppy breeding due to being out of tank space, but I will happily live vicariously through you and root for your lines to sell like hotcakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted September 30, 2022 Author Share Posted September 30, 2022 Kind of difficult to get good photos just yet, but I’m going to work with these males crossing with blue dragon females. They’re from Asia. Kind of struggling with shakes from transfer to my soft water. Arrived yesterday. We’ll see how they last. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 id give em a small amount of salt. id be willing to bet they come from tanks with a decent amount of salt in them, and a little may help them transition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSwissAquarist Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Jeez @Fish Folk, I had a look at the first post, then went directly to last one...WOW. This shows how guppies are one of the most interesting and bestselling fish in the industry, someone recently mentioned that an average wild guppy contains enough DNA diversity for over 6'000 different strains! I should make my own😈 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
