yep thats it, saw him trying to last night then they went into the bogwood caves and got jigy in there.

They are so shiny, its hard to ge the camera to focus on them.

you can keep them 1:1 however sometimes the female will get stressed, 2:1 is better i.e. 2 females : 1 male

no they will quite happily interbreed, however it depends on how interbred they already are if all the fry will be viable
commercial mollies are not a pure strain they are massively inbred to give the colours and shapes sizes we like.

I bought this pair to see how they interact with the other fish. So far so Good.
When i go to collect what i have reserved (Ribbon Guppies) i wil get another female - they will be bringing more out from quarantine so willsee what colors they have.

I would love it if they have a Wild color female, Green/Red/orange/blue.

the male has been putting on quite a show this evening and has big thick vertical stripes in dark blue.
all i did was change some of the lighting and chuck in some guppy pellets.
