I don't know...those seem like Guppyish names to me, but then again, I stink at naming fish.

As a friend who keeps a log would say
Guppy1-Snakeskin - Male
Neon Tetra 1 - Male
Neon Tetra 2 - Female
Black Neon Tetra 1 - Male
Technically they all have names. They all have history. He just doesn't do things like give them human names, as they'd never know their own name and a name that identifies them is more useful.
If Neon Tetra 1 passed away he might replace it
Neon Tetra 3 - Male
If he knows the parents, that will be in his logs as well. He's got logs all the way back to 1984 when he started as a teen. Several of those fish are from the original bloodlines or at least 2nd or 3rd cousins to those from the original bloodline.

He wouldn't call them Chuck or Steve. He gives them names so he can keep track of them, he keeps a family history because he's seriously breeding. Exactly how is this confusing?
