Since my last post blew up in popularity, I wanted to ask the question that everyone knows. What is the most common guppy/endler variety you have kept or still keeping today?

 

[Endlersendlers]

Aside from mutts? Yellow tiger endlers.

Emeraldking- are these actually known to be guppy hybrids or can I call them endlers?

You must have a huge fish room. You’ve done a lot of good work with these.

These which I've just shown are just a few strains I keep. So, there are way more strains swimming overhere...

I'm guessing you can only have one pair per tank when you are determining if they breed true? So maybe you mix in other dissimilar species so you can save on total tank numbers but its mind boggling

I've got more tanks than the average aquarist at home.

The last time I went to a serious smalltime commercial guppy breeder's set up (he supplied a lot of local stores) he had 300 3.5 gallon tanks for breeding pairs, and a two level set up of 20 gallon growouts. The racks were so high he worked on a ladder.

He was shutting down and selling tanks because he had realized that his large, windowless garage that had already been visited by the police because of its heat signature probably wouldn't be visited again and he could make more money growing some kind of plant.

I don't know how that worked out for him. He had nice guppies though.
