I have a livebearer tank
I raise guppies and mollies, I've got one muppy (who isn't supposed to exist [grumblegrumble]). I've been doing a lot of looking online about poecillia, the livebearer family of fishes.I have an ideal fish I'm trying to breed. Small like an endler, with lyretail genes from mollies and the sunset eclipse pattern I've got. I know. I'm not a god, I can't just make an animal. But if I toss a few (wild type) male endlers in there who can say what happens with the genes. I've seen claims of second […] -
I understand why #Angelfish are among the most popular species ☺️ I could totally see myself going all in if I had the space for it lol.

I found this lone little guy at the pet store! They had no idea where he came from or that he was even there. looks like blond japan blue double sword, but the caudal fin is too green for that lineage. Am now breeding him with one of my blond females who carry lower sword and snakeskin gene. Let's see what comes of it! 😅

wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i have rewatched it 4 times now. still don't know wtf he was thinking but her follow up reaction cracks me up so bad.

finally! it just took a year! +perfect timing! i'm in the middle of retooling my hobby. getting rid of everything except:
- #angelfish pair (230l tank)
- #kribs pair (54l tank)
- #bettas (6x 43l breeder tanks)
- #guppies (3x 110l tanks)
- #CPD (54l tank)as well as #ancistrus, #neocaridina and #aquariumplants, to maximize gains per tank. these are all the best to breed for trade- always in demand. good prices. only missing #medaka and #espei. no space tho.

that sole surviving fry of the super rare and hard to get fish which took me 4 years to track down took nearly 2 years to reach maturity and is indeed a female! now pregnant, after being exposed to the last two male for the past 6 months. separated them just in case anyone decides to go cannibal.
here's for hoping she has no complications with delivery and gives at least one male fry with the spotted gene and a few more females to start a proper colony!

At the end of last year, I wrote a rather lengthy article for the swedish guppy club newsletter, hoping it would be published in the january 2025 release. Sadly, they haven't published it yet, apparently there has been too few contributions this year and they have yet to publish any newsletter at all.
It would be a waste to have it go unpublished, so I just finished translating it and posted it to my Medium.

Still my favorite #guppy line!
Back when I originally got my hands on them, the double sword expression and filigran was ~ 1/10 male. The rest were either bottom swords or lacked the filigran.
In the latest generation, they are all showing ds and filigran! even that one male with poor cadual fin in the video still show some trace of a top sword!
Gotta wait and see what next 1-2 gen looks like; but it'd be amazing if TS and filigran have jumped chromosome 😁

I got a new group of Full Gold #guppies the other day! Hopefully there won't be an issue with scoliosis this time. The two males I brought home also have near perfect head cover. Most of the store supplied ones have a poor head cover; which is not ideal for breeding because they are a pond line not aquarium line. Focus should be on top view.

tried to record my other female #guppy lines, but they aren't as docile as the black one 😅
hoping to get my hands on the full red koi albino female line from 2022 this year - no one has imported to europe yet and my patience is running low 😉

say what you will about the "drab" of female #guppies but i keep this line specifically because of the females. so god damn beautiful!

the #guppies i ordered blind finally arrived!

after a couple of months of feeling like the hobby is more emotional drain than i can handle. both because i have let go of medaka as my main species, but also because of the recent and huge die off i suffered (lost about 80% of my fish).
the pet store surprisingly came to the rescue. a permanent 20% discount. and a list of species they pay good money for if i become a local breeder.
so i spent all day yesterday redesigning my fishroom for this new goal 😁

For the past 3 months since dropping #medaka, I've been trying several different species, and I think I have finally settled on a favorite: #endlers. They have proven to be incredibly hardy, productive, healthy and beautiful. They remind me so much of #wcmm in form of care and ease of breeding in all aspects (except cold hardiness).
As secondary focus, I'll be heavily invested in WCMM for my pond hobby.
