Endler × guppy hybrid

Poecilia wingei × Poecilia reticulata

No photo yet

The Endler (Poecilia wingei) crosses readily with the guppy, and the young are fertile. Many shop 'Endlers' are actually hybrids, and breeders who keep pure Endler lines strictly separate the two species. Small, colourful and very prolific, they do well in planted hard-water tanks.
