This is a second-generation fish. I want to know what livebearer this is. It is NOT a Sailfin Molly. It is some other species. There are about 15 of them. The parents died, so I’m trying to figure out what this is. I don’t have pics of parents, but I think they were Xiphophorus Variatus. They are in an outside tank.

Looks like a grey green Poecilia sphenops molly.

How big are they and can we see pictures of the others?
They might offer more insight as to the species.

Also calling @emeraldking for his opinion.

It almost looks like he is see-through.

Here is another one…but they look so different.

It's a variatus platy (Xiphophorus variatus). No molly! It just differs in coloration in comparison to the other variatus platy.

I agree firmly.
