Went to the LFS today to pick up some bog wood and couldn't resist these guys, got 2 pairs then fell in love with this lil one, which is male (didn't notice what sex it was till at home) so now i have 3 males 2 females, there not too interested in each other at the mo, just exploring at seperate places in the tank, if the males bother them at all i will remove 2 of them, leaving a trio. So some pics
The white micky mouse pair:
With the one i fell in love with, any ideas on colour?
The blue/orange pair (can't remember colour name :rolleyes:)

lovely platy! I can see why you couldn't resist it!
Sadly I am going to stop breeding guppies. This is because I have had major problems over he past few weeks. ALL of my guppies have been killed by a massive wipeout of everything, It started when I fed them at around 9pm and noticed that its whole tail had disintegrated between that morning and 9pm. That wiped out most of them, around 20, then they got some bacterial infection and then a disease or virus that made there whole body swell up.
After I only have 5 remaining and 10 babies in a breeding trap. I'm going to sell the 5 healthy remaining to my LFS and then when the babies are at a reasonable size I'm going to sell them as well.
So now I'm going to breed some other things because guppies are too weak now, this is because all of the inbreeding and line breeding have weakened the guppy fish significantly.
This is what I'm going to breed next:
Corydoras
Cherry barb
Odessa barb
.
Possibly Kribs and danios as well as neons
