What kind of Guppy is this?

Hi

We had all of our guppies in one tank and landed up getting some amazing babies. I found a site online (https://guppyexpert.com/guppy-fish-types/) that breaks guppies down according to tail shape and colouring, the closest match I could find was top sword, cobra but I would like a second opinion.



The picture did not come out as clearly as I would like, his colouring is actually yellow and brown. I will try to get a better picture

 

I had no idea there could be so many types of guppies they'd have a whole website dedicated to them

 

Agree with you on Cobra.

 

Cobra/Snakeskin. Does not look like a sword though. More snakeskin rhe more I look at it.

 

thanks for the feedback, glad to know I was not completely off base on the pattern. I also didn't think the tail looked like a top sword but couldn't find anything close to this ones shape.

The next question would be....if we manage to get these to breed and produce more of the same what would the price range be if we sold them?

 

Depend on the quality and size. In our market not much more than your normal petshop guppy.

 

Had a feeling that would be the case, which sucks cause if you look online at the prices in the US their more unusual guppies are going for over $20

 

If you breed something unique and then can get them to breed true you can ask way lot more. Normal snakeskin however dont fetch much.

Guppies one of the easier fish to create new strains because they breed so easy.
