Muppy!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i find this hard to believe really, i have bred thousands of mollies and guppies everyyear together in ponds and never have seen any crosses between the two but i hear platy will cross with swords. the first pic looks like a molly to me and these are some great pictures of fry but i cant tell for sure what you have there. guppies and mollies will hold sperm after mating for a long time the only real way of knowing for sure that you have a real cross is by taking baby female guppies and rearing them with only male mollies or vise versa and seeing if they do breed. if you did this id believ it more so but youd need females that werent mature to know for sure they hadnt been inseminated prior to placing in the tank, the first pic looks like a golden molly cross with black.
many years ago our farm produced these fish but i thought they were the black x gold ( orange) molly cross. they called them bumble bees.

Agreed with you! The picture looks like just gold molly with black marks, nothing special with it as they are 100% molly.
