what is your best breed livebearers that u have right now?
describe it... and why it is your best?

mine is a dalmatian-gold lyre-tail pot-bellied molly.
it's my best because, she's small 2 inches and can fit to 6-10G tank and she almost look like a goldfish but a livebearer.

what's yours?!
tnx and enjoy posting!

hmm, mine would have to be my blue male guppy he is all blue and black, his tail is huge, only 1 major flaw he has gotten 2 orange and 1 red spot on his tail]


there is also a young platty that is showing potential, she is a golden, almost sunny looking orange() then she is covered on little black dots i havent seen any imperfections as of yet, i think her father is a tropical silver mickeymouse platty, i will see if i can hunt down a pic of them

Lovely, hope there'll be no imperfections when he/she mature. Thanks for the post, anybody else! C’mon, give it a try. Describe your best livebearer!

My Endler's are always a surprise...more of my males are showing blue and light purple

I ended up with what I call Halloween guppies. Mom is a blue/black mettalic, dad a wild guppy. A large percentage of the fry have a deep purple, almost black body and the tail is orange with black markings.

Mom and one of her juveniles:

Love those blue colors

I have two platy fry growing out-the twins-who haven't quite reaching the color stage yet. Right now they look silver/grey with black speckles. I'm curious about their eventual coloring...potential parents are a blue Mickey Mouse, orange wag, green wag, half blue-half orange wag :%)

Thanks Theresa, he was one of the best looking at the lfs (very small lfs) and he was definately a happy camper at schoolnow at home in the 29 there are 2 males, 5 females, and so many fry I wouldn't ever think about counting

My 20 gallon has 2 boys and 1 girl that are all siblings, the blue boy in that tank was a girl until about a month ago...talk about a late bloomer

Now in that tank it's back to antbed status, and all the fry from school are in there with them:%)

Gotta love guppies, every 28-32 days you've got babies, and as the female gets older the number of fry increase:%)It's for this reason I don't blame KTS's Sunshine (female guppy) from bailing out of the feeder basket

EDIT: Theresa is it just me or do you love just waiting to see when they will get their coloring? And it always seems to come almost over nightgotta love the guppiesyour's are beautiful, and Halloween? I'd never thought of that, I have a few as well

Mine would have been my Lyre tail guppy. He was yellowish with redish pinky streaks and 2 blue dots on both sides, he also shined purplsih in the light, I lost him to my AWFUL FILTER which I got rid of. Also my little platy (4months) that was completely bright bright orangey red all over. There was no touch of any other colour. A few day ago little blackberry suddenly fell sick, and passed away the next day.:#(:#(:#(:#(:#(

But since those two are noit with us anymore, it would be probably have to be my rather large female platy Speckles. She is pinkish peach, with black speckles all over her body, she also have a sort of black stripe over her tail. She is very beautiful.

right now my livebearer selection is limited, but my favorites are my orange albino high fin mollies.
