      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Endler&#039;s Livebearer were discovered in 1937 by Franklyn F. Bond, in northeastern Venezuela. Remaining unknown to anyone else, they were later rediscovered by John Endler in 1975. John A. Endler collected Poecilia sp. now, &quot;Endler&#039;s Livebearer&quot; in 1975 from Laguna de Patos, Cumana, in northeastern Venezuela. They have been found in surrounding areas in the past few years. They were found in warm (81 degrees F) , hard water which was very green with algae. Plankton such as diatoms, nekton, and...<br />

It is in fact a female balloon molly. I looked up symptoms so I could watch and see and some I found were shyness and aggression toward other fish..My molly has both of those. The main problem I have though is that I don&#039;t have a male balloon molly, but I do have a male lyre-tail molly(also shown in picture) and he has been very clingy to her. Is...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Well I found myself with an empty 10 gallon so I decided I would give Endler breeding a try.  Let me get this out of the way right from the start:  It is basically impossible to get Endler females where I live, because the local pet stores can&#039;t even tell a male Endler from a Guppy, nevermind the females!<br />
<br />
As such, I plan on breeding male Endlers with female Guppies.  I know this is frowned upon by some people, but I would never be able to aquire purebreds in the first place, and I of course...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>Should i try guppies again?</b><br />
<br />
OK, so i was thinking that i might want to get some guppies for my toads as they do snack on them. So i was thinking to try and breed them in my 10 gall freshwater? My last guppy was to aggressive for my community tank, but the only one was really docile. So i&#039;m not sure if i should try them again to try to raise them as feeder in my 10 gall with my 2 fish, and that way since they will be feeders i don&#039;t have to worry about my ADF&#039;s eating them? <br />
<br />
What do...<br />

They still have the yolks, but are already eating worms.   It&#039;s really interesting to see them already being predators.   They have started to swim and everything.   It&#039;s really neat.<br />
