    Hi, I will definitely take 3 pairs of the endler x japan blues. I do not mind that they will throw some blonde ones as well. This will be my first step into endlers :)

    OK guys,

    I TRIED to take some pics of the Endler x Japan Blues. I caught them all out and put them into a small tank which I placed in good daylight. What i immediately noticed is that their colours change with different lighting in that on my tanks the dark markings are darker, but the blue iridescence with this light was brighter. Basically they all have the iridescence but the intensity is a little different from one fish to the next. They also grow fin extensions, some of them more, some less. The original pics of the fishes showed less fin extensions these have a little longer extensions. I have now kept males for breeding that have short fin extensions, but have the brighest iridescence of all the fishes. This is like the fish in the first pic just to the left of the middle of the pic, that is my personal choice, but if you breed these fishes now you will be able to select any of these variations and eventually fix (meaning to get the fish all the same) the strain as you decide according to your own personal taste, so in future we can have the Japan Blue Endler Irma strain or Japan Blue Endler Sky01 strain or whatever.

    What I will do is if someone orders a couple of pairs, then I will supply a spectrum of males with slight variations.

    What I find interesting in this strain is that Japan Blue guppies have just about the best iridescence that normal guppies have and Endlers have that gold iridescence and now the combination of these strains actually has the highest iridescence that I have ever seen in any guppy.

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Hi Dirk, thanks so much for the pics! I actually love the same traits that you like.
    I would love to order 4 pairs of them but instead of sending me variations, please can I get all the males to be as close as possible to the male in the first pic to the left of the middle? I like the body to have majority of blue and with the red and black stripes on the tail with a black spot near the head.

    Hi. Got 2 pairs of the endler x japan blues from @Dirk Bellstedt today.

    2 pics of what my males look like. The one with the longer fins is one of the original ones if I am correct.

    Thank you @Dirk Bellstedt

    Hi All

    I only have one tank that I can use to hold the Endler x Japan blues so I do not mind if there are guys close to me that want the same fish but unfortunately I cannot accomodate the other strains. I am more then willing to hold the Endler x Japan blues for Centurion and Jhb guys as Wonderboom is very far from me.

    No, you guys are not reading my posts again, I do not have Endler Spaten Gold crosses available and the pandurinis are still far too small. So we are talking about Endler Japan Blues crosses and A aggassizzi. Irma also asked for 4 prs of Endlers, please update the numbers on this thread accurately and then we can see how many are on order.

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Hi @woerman and Dirk - I only want the 4 pairs of the Endler x Japan Blues. I do not want the Endlers.
    Also, thanks for the offer of dropping them off but I would prefer to get them delivered straight to me as I work 2 mins away from home and can quickly go home and start acclimatizing them. I do appreciate the offer though.

    I do not mind if other people that also want endler x japan blue want to send there orders with mine.

    Sorry Irma,

    I had meant 4 pairs of Endler x Japan Blues.

    Woerman please just consolidate the order now, please ignore wearbunnyslippers (I will not supply him after my problems with him on APSA) and carry on, this order will have to be sent off on Friday and no later as I cannot do any shipping next week. I would drive to the airport in the morning and then someone would have to collect from the Cargo section at OR Tambo in the afternoon.

    There is one other person that contacted me that must also be included in this order and I am waiting for that person to post his/her numbers.

    Kind regards,

    Dirk
