Look like guppies to me, not heard the name though. Just treat as you normaly treat guppies. If they have babies i'm first in the queue They look gorgeous

Last week I got some Bumblebee Guppies from my local Maidenhead Aquatics. Id not heard of them before and I cant find any info or pictures of them on the web. Does anyone else have any or know anything about them?

Going by your pics, they seem like a guppy cross endler that i recently bred lol...

Bare in mind that the outcome of this breed is still very young (maybe only 12 weeks) so its colours aint fully out yet...

This what i bred to get mine - it was a yellow tailed guppy (in pic it dont look as yellow as it actually is) - crossed with a tiger endler and the outcome is..........

This female was 100% virgin so i know for a fact this is the dad as i put them alone in a 18" tank.

They do look similar 5teady! The body and head is a lavender colour which then fades to pink as it goes towards the tail and the fins are a very bright yellow. They are so pretty and its such a shame I cant get a decent picture to do them justice.

What would you call it then a Gudler, Gupler, Gupper, Enuppy?

A tiger endler is alread a guppy cross, so it's 3/4 guppy now. which it looks clear in the resualting fry to be mostly guppy.

Didn't realise that, I just thought they were another type of Endler. So how about Peacock Endlers as I have some of them too? Are they pure Endler or crossed?

Most endlers to be honest are crosses, but if you can get true peacock's they are true endlers.
