Guppy ID

[Jfilk]

I bought these guppies a few days ago and I was wondering what kind are they? Any help is appreciated.

i don't think they're double sword tails, they're endlers IMO.

Cool thanks! Are those the good kind?

Oh cool thanks and are those the good type of guppy?

endlers are from the same family that the guppies are from. they're smaller compared to the guppies and produce little bioload, which is good for maintenance. they're usually recommended when the tank size is small (5-10gal). they're pretty and easy to take care of.

what do you mean by "good type"? if you're referring to compatibility, they will get along with your female guppies.

They're not endlers, it might be an endler guppy hybrid though.

it might be a hybrid, but the two lines on.the tail tell you.that.it has endler genes

I was just meaning like good color and good genetics in them

Well that's cool! And I have them in a 15 gal tank with a couple young fish. Any tanks mates suggestions?

tetras and mollys are good companions.

Well I got plenty of those in my community 30 gallon. Will gourami's be ok to go with them?

yes the dwarf gouramis are good

Ok cool but I'm not sure what type of gourami they'll be. My friend is getting rid of a few types of fish to me but se doesn't know their specific species

Are you sure? They look more like guppies to me... But I guess they could be endler/guppy hybrids

 

[Jfilk]

I'm still not sure what the difference between the two are. But I looked up endlers live bearers and the male look to be one. The females though look like normal guppies to me
