Oh no I think I got a crossbreed!

[DaPony87]

I have two tanks one has endlers in it the other has guppies. Both are pure strains and are beautiful fish. One day a couple of weeks ago I decided to switch the fishs tanks giving the endlers the biiger of the tanks so they could have more room to breed. sadly I think I missed one of the male endlers because there are now three elongated possible guppy/endler crossbreed females and one very very large possible crossbreeed male. The male is about the same size of female guppy except it has a lot more spindily tale then its regular endler males. The females are a lot moer elongated and not as stocky. Could these be crossbreeds?

It's possible. I can't really see you photo though.

yeah i can see it, i dont know let them grow out and see!

just keep them away from your pure endlers and you'll be fine. but as the hybrid endlers breed the endler genes will be bred out of them.

 

[feeder_guppy]

where do you get endlers? I am looking for them?

a

The pic is one of the female (possible) hybrids next to a pen for comparison. It seems much to elongated and large when compared to the other normal female endlers.

Guppy/Endler hybrids are infertile so there's no need to worry about futher genetic contamination.

really?wow. who knew....

 

[wabyrd]

Guppy/Endler hybrids are infertile

Are both male and female infertile?

 

[feeder_guppy]

are they?

 

[rubysoho]

from what I've *heard,* yes. Both male and female are infertile.
