Description

N CLASS ENDLERS LIVE BEARERS LIME GREEN ENDLER 3 PAIRS

Winner of this auction will receive three male and three female LIME GREEN Endler. The picture is of one of my breeders. The fish you receive will be young fish. The males will be just coloring up if not full color. And the females may be pre hit. These fish were purchased from Lexinverts. These fish can be easily traced back to AdrinHD to prove N class status.

Although sometimes referred to as "Endler's guppies," Endlers are not guppies (Poelicia reticulata). Rather, they are a closely related species that was recently (2006) described by a group of German scientists as Poelicia wingei. They were originally collected by evolutionary biologist, Dr. John Endler in 1975 in Lago de los Patos, Venezuela and brought back to the USA, where they became established in the aquarium trade. In the 80's, while traveling in England, Dr. Endler discovered, to his surprise, that his fish had become known in trade as "Endler's Live bearers." He noted that the fish being sold as Endler's Live bearers had lost much of the color variation present in the original specimens, perhaps because of genetic drift, inbreeding, and/or hybridization with guppies. Native populations of these fish show amazing colors and have a tremendous amount of variation. In the last 15 years, new collections have been made from the populations in and around Lago de los Patos, which, sadly, is threatened by runoff from a nearby garbage dump. (Soon many Endlers wild type color variants may only exist in the aquarium hobby.) The recent collections have added many fabulous new genetic variants to the aquarium trade.
