Help please? I want to find out what variety of fish I own.?
Hey, i got some fish from a friend a while back, which I know to be livebearers, and the previous owner call them guppies, but they're unlike anything I've ever seen before... please check this photo, and let me know what this fish is.

Your friend is right, both are guppies, the top one is a manly, they can be practically any colour and fin shape. The lower one is a female and moderatly pregnant, expect more guppies an a week or two.

It could be a wild-type guppy or it could be a Endlers. Some individuals think they're just different colors of the same entry, since they can mate and have fry. If you never heard of Endlers livebearers, see this. http://www.aquariumhobbyist.com/endlersl... - note - look at some of the photo gallery shots http://www.aquariumhobbyist.com/endlersl...
The one on top looks similar to a neon tetra, I dont know what the one below is.
