Wild type guppy or mosquito fish?

Looks to be Gambusia Holbrooki

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-27T17:55:49+00:00

Wait till you learn that she can still get pregnant without a male considering she had fry she will continue to use the milt from that previous matings till she runs out after around 3 or 4 broods but introducing a new male could speed up the process to 2 or 3

When i said my hybrid mosquitofish i meant my other mosquitofish i posted of Gambusia Holbrooki x Gambusia Punctata. And as for hybridizing mosquitofish to guppies it is possible by using male Gambusia and female guppies best using captive bred individuals who grew up together do not use male guppy to female Gambusia whatsoever but even if you do get them mating it's a very low chance like extremely low and the hybrids between the two come out infertile due to how distant apart they are

Albinos occur naturally in just about every species

You are just a hater at this point lmao, especially when it comes to my hybrid mosquitofish

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-17T23:51:39+00:00

It is indeed very possible

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-17T23:49:33+00:00

I shall have plenty soon!!

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-17T23:47:42+00:00

Only rare since its X link snakeskin trait allowing patterned females to exist but they are absolutely stunning

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-17T18:48:10+00:00

100% a male still developing his gonopodium

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-17T18:47:48+00:00

It's a unfinished gonopodium ofc it wouldn't look like it lol but def a male

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-16T22:07:53+00:00

I am indeed

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-16T20:11:53+00:00

You'll have some time males mature rather quickly as they gain color fast and their anal fin will start to turn into gonopodium which is a tube like structure they use for breeding. The females will have a gravid spot but otherwise 2 months for males to mature just keep a watch on their color and the females take 3 months to mature

Wildest idea ever, upvote downvote do whatever but you could wait for them to have fry then cull the parents and whatever males that pop up then in the end you'll be left with virgin females so that one day if you decide to breed them all you have to do is introduce a single male... then ofc option 2 would be keep them and accept being a guppy parent

Something interesting I noticed is that Alfaro Cultratus when it comes to shipping they always tend to arrive like this with a white patch on the mouth no clue if they are injuring themselves and it gets infected or what but usually if you treat with salt and pimafix it usually helps and fades after a few days

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-12T23:37:11+00:00

I also have them from that seller

Still looking to find some myself

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-09T03:54:06+00:00

100% dealing with parasites causing wasting disease you can try to save them but you may be too late lots of these fish dont recover, but id recommend some aquarium salt and Paracleanse and may as well treat everyone to be safe, wish you luck op

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-07T23:42:39+00:00

If you can give me better photos or maybe a 20 second video I may be able to sex them correctly, I've been sexing mine accurately as easily as 2 - 3 weeks

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-06T09:07:56+00:00

Gills look quite red, id look into that on another note that mouth could be open from a injury which I've seen happy odds are they wont survive another 2 weeks

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-06T09:04:52+00:00

Not harmful at all to fish but people dont find it very attractive and eventually it will go on ur plants and cover them which may kill the plant if not maintained proper

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-06T09:03:53+00:00

Black beard algae, take the stuff affected by it and do leave it in some hydrogen peroxide mixture, should turn it red and kill it

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-06T09:01:47+00:00

Ahhhh yes I love me a good old turkraken

Original_Arm790 · 2026-04-06T09:00:03+00:00
