Alright, the choice for this poll's theme is livebearers, so you will get to vote on the best livebearer that you want to see. You have 2 votes, and it will close June 10, 2008. Have fun with the voting.

Hard to pick between the Amecas and Endlers.

Tom

That is why you can vote twice.

Whoa! I've never heard of some of those!

Are the Endler's colors natural? They look a little... fake...

angelfish220

Yep, that is what makes them a great fish, total natural yet out of this world.

No swords? or mollies? or guppy color strains.....awwww

Sabi

Yep! People, pls don't for get you can vote for 2 fish!

Tom

Endler's are a really rare and colorful close relative to guppies. They are almost extinct in the wild and have been started to be bred with guppies just to try and keep the strain alive.

But remember, we try and add new fish on the main site.
http://www.fishlore.com/freshwaterfish.htm
http://www.fishlore.com/saltwaterfish.htm
So we are trying to show that there are more species of fish other then those on the main site, even though everyone knows that already.

Oh that makes more sense. I thought it was jsut for the sake of polls every month. Thanks for clearing it up Tom.

You should add Montezuma Swordtails. They are really neat fish,

Butterfly

Yes even though the female Endler is a rather drab solid color the male is dressed in his sunday best. The Males are really small and feisty. they are way too cool

ps Tom where did you find such good pics of those? they are really good.

Tom

That's a good idea. I'll add them to the list of future suggestions. Thanks.

Oh, that is one of my males. Ya right, I just used google images and that was my favorite of the ones that came up on the first page. lol

Endler's Livebearers males have all kinds of 'paint splash' patterns and are every bit (if not more) as amorous as guppy males. The females are a plainer color, but get to 2 or even sometimes 3 times the size of males. Our endler's tank is never quiet, these little fish are so active!
