PineSong Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have poked around on this forum and online and have not been able to find a list of which strains of guppies have non-plain females. I know some (like Cory's "best guppies in the world") have very fancy females with large fins and lots of color and I've run across others (HB blues, albino ) with at least some color on their tails and large-ish tails at that. Does anyone know if there is a comprehensive list somewhere? Or, if you know of a strain with females that aren't plain gray/brown, add it here and I'll make a list myself 🙂 TIA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameCzar Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 This is something I'd like to learn as well. I have one female with some nice pattern in her tail, but I have no idea where it came from her being a mutt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I don’t know what my girls are bought grandma as standard fancy guppies. This is 2nd generation and the tails are still coming out vibrant in 3rd and 4th gen. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. Payne Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Albino koi guppy females are beautiful in my opinion. I like them better than my males. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSH OUTDOORS Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 My 165 gallon outdoor pond was stocked with 200 fancy female guppies that either had black bodies or red and yellow bodies. I had 50+- males from second generation "pure lines" that didn't meet the line standard that I added with them. This fall I will grab all of them too bring inside and slowly isolate similar cool looking stains and try to start something new from them. No idea if it will work but what else am I supposed to do with a foot or two of snow outside this winter?!?!? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgiapeach88 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Following. I have japan blue females. Still trying to see what colors they will be. Looks like females have pretty tails and mostly tan body with a hint of teal shimmer. Most of mine are babies atm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
