Panda guppies

Overhere a video of some of my panda guppies. Some are very pregnant... These won'tr chase nor eat their fry. So, it's safe to let a female drop fry in there.
And again, there's no endler influence in them. They're genuine guppies. The only reason why they're more rigid and smaller (at least the males) than an average fancy guppy is because of the pink gene they carry. Connected to the pink gene is a dwarf growth gene.

That's interesting about the pink gene... I didnt know that

Same! So pretty.

I'm a genetic nerd as well... Sorry!
The commercial trade likes to call them endler hybrids because of their size. But there's zero percent endler influence in there.
Same thing with ginga guppies. That could be ginga rubra or ginga kinubali, etc... These are small because of a wild guppy influence that's been used in that line. And not an endler. But commercial trade likes to make people believe that they're endler hybrids. Sells way more better to call them endler hybrids. Marketing issue...! Serious guppy and endler breeders think that's really disturbing.

That is so cool , I had seen a black molly drop her babies many years ago. My feeder guppies didn't chase or eat their fry too which is why I ended up with so many frywish my tetras were like that.

Those guppies are gorgeous! So cute! Congrats on your pregnant female guppy. Once again, it is LOADED with fry! Keep it up!
BTW I subscribed. It is so cool watching videos of all your different livebearers. As you may know, I really love caring, keeping and breeding livebearers as well!

Panda guppies are awesome

Thanks. Yes, I know. I've watched that video of yours as well.
Well, she's not the only pregnant female overhere. She's one of the many...

I've got three different kinds of panda guppies.

The socalled dwarf panda guppy is the same as the normal panda guppy. They just have more blue instead of black. But that has got to do with the lack of melanophores (brown/black color cells) and a higher density of cyanophores (blue color cells). This happens often when one of the parents has got recessive moscow genes.
Below: a more bluish male (but still a genuine panda guppy).
