Hey everyone
So, i was looking at my guppies and realized that i have no idea what kind of strain they are, or even what kind of strains do exist? I mean are guppues supposed to be all one color or something like that? I will post some pics of my guppies in a little bit to my photo album, maybe someone can tell what they are? or if they are just mutts? Also where is a good place to see "show-quality guppies?

Guppies come in an alarming variety of patterns and it seems what you have are mutts but with promise. Those females look like they could in a few generations probuce some snakeskin guppies. The blue one with the flowing tail reminds me of one guppy that was actually pure bred so if it was my choice I would use that male to breed.

while your guppies are good looking, they aren't exactly show quality. All guppies are Poecilia reticulata, and their profile can be seen [link=here]http://fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/guppies.xml" style="COLOR: #FFFFFF[/link] with a bunch of pictures showing a couple different varieties of guppies [link=here]http://fishprofiles.com/interactive/photos/gallery.asp?id=guppies_profile" style="COLOR: #FFFFFF[/link].
