Ever since the past two years I've been watching those pictures and videos of Cauliflower swordtails. The bodyshape is a bit similar to an average molly instead unlike most swordtails.
Recently I'm the proud owner of some of these swords. There's also another variety which is called Sabertail. The shape of the sword of that one looks similar to a saber. Mine are the regular ones.
There's also another difference when it comes to the sword with the males in comparison to a regular swordtail within Xiphophorus helleri. The sword of a male Cauliflower swordtail is a bit thicker and shorter and it's complete brick red.

They're also albinos, btw...

The dorsal of both genders looks really gracious.
