    I'm not sure if this term is used by anybody else, but that is what I have chosen to call the Endler/Guppy Hybrid.

    Is this fish already a hybrid or just a weird Endler? Is it Male?

    A gupler ? I've never heard them called that before. Yeah, judging by the body shape I'd say it's a "gupler" or a hybrid of Endler and Guppy.

    It is a male.

    There are Endler's that have tails like that but the body itself looks too large/fat to be 100% Endler.

    Ok cool. I have him, a pure Endler male, and 4 female guppies in a tank.

    There's ~20 Fry now so I'm hoping for hybrids, although the females could have been pregnant when I got them, we'll see.

    The hybrids can be pretty cool looking fish.
