Guppy/Balloon Molly?

FishGuy1564 · 11-24-2005, 07:31 AM

I have two female balloon mollies and two male guppies. I also have 19 or more balloon molly babies, a few guppy babies, and a few that are in the middle. When somebody had a babies, I knew it had to be a molly because I have no female guppies. These babies had little black dots where their tails connected with their body ever since the second day they were born. I have witnessed guppy babies many times, in fact, I have a fifth generation just from one starting fish. Balloon molly babies come out with color. Do you think the guppy males breed with the balloon mollies?

it is possible but unlikely. There are other posts about livebearer cross breeding somewhere

think about the oddities they would make when those fry grew up if they were crosses;
pot-bellied with a fancy tail!
