SpicyFin Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Here's an update on the blue marble guppy strain I am creating. Im getting more and more males coloring up like dad. I caught dad Mr Marble himself as well as several juvenile males in different stages of development of the body pattern and a young female that is getting white on the top line too. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all out of "likes" for today 😅 . . . but this is SWEET! Your genetics will grind down as they inbreed unless you can figure out a way to "cross out" the line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 You could call this line "Blueberry Camo." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks these are still very early in development I cant claim a true set strain they are still throwing some odd balls I am sure it will be a few years before I claim them as a set strain. But I would love to one day see JLs Blue Marbles in other people's fish rooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow... is all I can say. So how many tanks does this require? 1 for mating, 1 for fry, 2 more for separating males and females, and a cull tank? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
