Okay i have been keeping an eye out for some in my LFS, ive come accross a hybred, but not any pure, anyone in the washington area know where to get some? I would really like to have some XD
if ur worried about this, its hard to find "Pure" pure endlers. almost all endlers will be hybrid to a certain extent unless awarded by ALA (american livebearer's association). they have awarded many people who have performed an excellent line breeding/selective breeding techniques. that is the closest thing you can get to PURE endlers.
Ya i can kinda see it lol, i have one male guppy/endler cross, but i wanted to see if i can breed out the guppy into pure endler, and i was thinking that maybe that would still keep some of the traits it has of a guppy if it does have any.. I just sent my dad a picture of an endler and a message asking if he can buy them for me, i hope he gets back soon to me(I dont live with him, i live with my mom)
Dunno if you noticed, I realised I didn't want to sell my true forms since I only have a couple males.. I edited my post. The ones for sale sure look like wild-type though.
Oh lol... Sorry i was offline for a minute, i remembered that i woke up a few times this morning and saw my Danios spawning, so i wanted to pull my tank off the edge a little to see if there was any eggs on the bottom and sure enough there was, so i had to go fishing, so now all 18 fish that was in that tank are floating in my 29 gallon to adjust to the water temp, haha, im excited i might actually be able to keep this batch of babies alive(thats as far as danios go, livebreeders i have no problem with)
Ya i have first bites mixed in with some other finely crushed up flakes, um 2 are glow lepoard danios(1 male, 1 female, longfinned) 3 are lepoard danios(2 males and 1 female i think or it was the other way around, longfinned) and 2 zebra danios (male short finned, female who is my big momma longfinned)
Might wanna get some BBS and hatch them...You still got plenty of time since they won't be free-swimming for a couple days.. At least they're in an established tank. probably plenty of unfusoria.
i dont have any money, and i dont think petco has any, nor do i know how to hatch them lol, ive raised danio fry for about 3 weeks once before, but the tank got ich and killed them before i was done with the treatment, i got in in all my freshwater tanks at the time, lost a bunch of fish, but surprisingly enough the one that was worse off lived and i still have him/her
I thought petco had BBS eggs for about $4... oh well. crushed flake and unfusoria will work fine.
Wasn't sure if you'd done this before or not.
you know, you may have solved the question whether leapard danios and zebra danios are the same species or not... (when you see what the offspring looks like)

actually i think they are, because my 3 leapard danios spots are in lines like the stripes on the zebra danios. im excited to see the fry though, their just black for the first while, but im hoping to have more glow, i did have 3 of everything, but lost 1 glow and 1 zebra, but today im going back to walmart to use the last $2.21 thats left on a gift card i found to pick up 2 more zebras since thats the only kind they have, i have heard of some blue danios and red danios that im dying to find lol
mmm your endler/guppy cross could be easily obtained through "feeder" guppies. bout 33cents here. they have gone up since i have been small. i actually have one like that except it contains more blue. yet since ive added into the saltwater tank the dual tail has disappeared. most people would fall back on this and just say its a non-endler since most guppies are a hybrid anyways. knowing that it will always have a trace of endler's
note: feeder guppies are guppies in which do not have desirable traits in which the person is seeking.
as for hatcing BBS its pretty easy, all you need is salt, water and a container. some people like to air-rate it but if its small enough (good surface area) you dont need an air tube. i hatch mine in a container which i got from copepods.
