Freak of nature? Look what I found after stripping a dragon blood today

He did not make it, but I have had several holds from this female and all have yielded a conjoined fry in each batch but I have been unsuccessful rearing. The most long term success has been from a conjoined pair that have been joined at the rib cage region of abdomen and was able to swim in circles in search of food with limited success ( a little over a month)
I know there is a way too, but Im limited on tank space right now.
I think moving him/them to their own tank is probably a better way.
That's really unusual to say the least. Got more photos of these oddballs?
No but Ive had 3 conjoined so far.
1 pair connected at the belly so they swam in circles on their side.
And the other pair who lasted the longest the other pair were connected on the ribcage region and both had tails, this pair lasted about a month.
I have seen fry that have two heads, but they rarely make it. They get too many health issues and get outcompeted for food too much. When I bred guppies, when I got conjoined ones I just used them as feeders, it's the most humane thing to do honestly. They usually can barely swim or eat, I hate having to feed them to other fish but it's better than watching them struggle to swim and eat while they slowly die.
