Have a safe trip and have FUN !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
I love my mutt guppy tank. After 2-3 generations I suddenly have had a Dumbo Gene pop up. No parents showed this Gene at all. So fun to watch how it turns out. I now have half black Dumbo males with yellow and red cobra on the back half, and blue above the black on the body, with Dumbo fins. I love my babies!
WOW! Sounds great!
Good luck with your breeding project. Love Scott and Liz, their livestream is a riot to be a part of. Doug is doing some really interesting and colorful crosses.
Making pineapple juice popsicles with the grandbabies, so that's what we are snacking on.
👍💕👍
Those sound yummy!
Wonderful presentation Mike and you made me laugh so much that I have accidentally subscribed and very gently pressed that notification bell 🔔. 👏👏👏👏👏
i think what you can get eventually is a cobra body with a black tail just cause of how the dominant and recessive genes works! best of luck! ps a beer and a spliff cause its my day off! picked up a new l46 so kinda stoked!!! cheers!!!
Nice snack and pick up!
Omg. So excited. I found my first guppy baby about 2 weeks ago and found 3 today. I am old and my eyesight isnt that good but the first one is allready like 4 times the size of the micros i fished out today. They are doing great in their tiny tank. Cant wait to see what they turn into color wise.
Congrats!
From breeding guppies myself I feel that they do hold forever until they are empty. Also thats why I got my Moscow Guppies from you to put with my strain in making. But I'm working with orange cobras that I made :). Its easy to make new strains because how quick the guppies gestation is. I'd say wait a month or two more and then start culling to your specifications you want. Good luck bro
👊 Thanks Dila! It's hard to say when they are empty too! LOL
This feels like unbox therapy fish edition dude love it
Thanks so much for watching!
That Java moss is amazing!
Thanks!
snack and beverage, fresh brewed coffee, white 3tsp suggar, and bacone and eggs on toast. Oh by the way its breakfast time here in down under. Yet another great vid some good content.
Good Morning Peter! Sounds like a great breakfast or dinner! What kind of toast?
Plain white the most unhealthy bread you can eat, 'aparently' but hay live on the wild side
@@MichaelsFishRoom
LOL....I like the potato bread!
A day late as I needed to repair my pc from annihilating the sub button, forgot I was already subbed. 🤦🏻♀️
One sure has to have patience to breed a new strain, kudos to you!
Coffee and croissant, again lol.
Two of my favorites lady! I don't have patience.....I'm only doing for content. LOL
Beautiful guppies 🇬🇧❤️🐟🐠
Thanks!
Bagels and Lox... I made it at home due to the lack of Tribes People in my community. I purchased the lox at Sam's club. The bagel, not so great. But, it does the trick. Love the cross. One of those males was stunning.
What kind of bagel? I am partial to the everything. Sesame is 2nd. The whitefish spread from Sam's is pretty good too.
@@MichaelsFishRoom Everything, which is my favorite. I will try the whitefish spread. This is quite good.
Glad you like it!
Snack was a late evening chicken salad sandwich and water. Have you ever kept a female guppy separate from males to see how long she'd keep producing tasty and delicious fry?
No but that is a great idea for content!
Oh I “drilled” the notification button lol
Nice! Thanks!
Like your video, Michael. About the max period of sperm packet storage. I do hear a lot that it only lasts for a couple of months. But that's an incorrect info what people give. Most work with the info they've found and use that as a reference. But the truth is that the sperm storage can take up to over a year even. That's why I always use virgin females when I start a breeding project. So, a female guppy that has mated within a year time, I don't consider such a female a clean female. Too much risk that she's still carrying sperm packets in the folds of her fallopian tube. I'm keeping and breeding guppies ever since the 1970's untill this very day. So, also a passionate guppy enthusiast like you. I've enjoyed your video.
Thanks for the info!
Looking good there Michael. Will be interesting to see how they turn out
Sure will! Thanks for watching!
I love your videos and I plan on purchasing some guppies from you
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm trying a rainbow mosaic female with a platinum blue-grass male. So far lots of colours in the fry (even the females!). If I try something new I try and use a virgin female so I don't have to guess or wait. Curry chicken with rice and a peach juice
Not a fan of either....but the guppies sound sweet!
Most Moscow coloration is carried by the males. So you might consider adding in some more Black Moscow males and pulling out as many of the males that aren't colored to your liking. This would let the Black Moscow males breed with more of the females. You'd likely get closer to what you're wanting a bit faster and easier that way.
Or pull out a bunch of the females, move them to another tank with just Black Moscow males to breed with.
Good advice!
How long did it take for fries to grow to adults
Not long
Good luck man working with my own got lucky with Virgin girls here gotta love mud guppies though there always so neat to let breed and see what pops up lol.
Love the Mutt guppies
Mike when you stop eating greasy chicken 🍗 and stopped being mike the mouth 👄 mans needs to do a shuffle and have a beer 🍻 and live stream say what’s up ⬆️
Lol
Hi Michael, i know they arent what your after just yet but the babies look amazing colours and patterns already. Interesting video, thanks for sharing 😁
Thanks and thank for watching!
Popcorn/ jalapeno cheese dip & coffee with French vanilla creamer lol
That’s a weird combination!
Yeah more guppies plz
What do you want to see?
@@MichaelsFishRoom dumbo mosaic guppy i am fan of it
My snack a nice fat dab...to see the guppys
Nice
I'm confused. Whats is a cobra tail ? Cobra is a snake skin trait that describes bars at the caudle peduncle Not a color of tail fin.
OK
He did say he's a dumb guy with a camera.
I subscribed just because you said "BOOP!" And good content a plus lol
Thanks lol
I definitely can't wait to that breed comes up for sale...
It will be a while my friend.
I remember drawing you on my Etch A Sketch..and now here you are...😎😎😎😎😎😎
Weird! Like when Facebook pops up an ad on the exact thing you were thinking about!
@@MichaelsFishRoom 😱😱😱😱😱.that happens to you too..uncanny...
and it is creepy!
Nice video thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for watching my friend!
Nice video
Thank you!
Nice. Someone in the DIY group is trying to do gold + steel body with red tail. Trying to get him to call them wutang guppies lol not sure if they are breeding true yet
LOL...sounds interesting!
So how did it go?
OK
How do you know if you have pure breed of a particular guppy?
You really have to know what it is and know your strains.
The bloopers 😆
The best part!
……..for a minute I thought you were just going to be nice to Doug but then the mic dropped with the Nissan. LOL Poor Doug. :( You both are really awesome!
Poor doug because of his POS car!
Mike do you put any moss out in the tubs? Maybe at the end of the summer you can sell the guppies and the moss. $$ Double Ka-ching$$ Just thinking out loud that's all!!
BRo, of course I do! It grows like a weed too! But I never have enough so I don't usually sell it.
Wondering if you ever use live food?
Brine shrimp sometimes and black worms. You?
Any ideas how to get a purple guppy?
Easy...mix a red with a blue! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Actually I’m not sure what you are asking, what genetics are needed or where to buy?
Either I've always loved guppies and am in the process of getting equipment together to start my 1st tank. I love your videos!
susan webber matthews I’ll have them for sale in the spring.
@@MichaelsFishRoom I will definitley keep an eye out for them thank you
I know this is an older video, but I’ve seen female guppies give birth to upwards of nearly 2 full years after being separated from males; first hand. I’ve had it happen myself also.
I am not saying I don't believe you, but I don't.
@@MichaelsFishRoom cool man, to each their own.
Coffee and no snack lol.
Sad
Hi there. While I'm no geneticist either, a ton of reading and some personal experience with breeding has taught me some things about genetics.
First of all, without literally knowing the genome of both parents and testing to verify that they were 100% pure blooded of some variety, fish like Guppies can carry sub dominant traits... Many subdominant traits. And the problem becomes if a mother and father pass two of the same recessive traits on to a baby, then they become what's known as homozygous for the recessive trait, and it will show up. To a person breeding the fish they may believe they have a new variety when in fact it is not a new variety but is simply blind luck that the two parents had the same recessive gene.
For example, I crossed an albino bristlenose female with a Calico bristlenose male, and while I got 50% albino babies, I also got 50% babies that are not Calico but which are simply Basic Black bristlenose. In other words, none of them look like the father. So the father's recessive Calico trait did not pass on to any of the babies. The mother and father both had traits from plain brown bristlenose so that is what appeared rather than the Calico trait.
And then oddly, I have a long thin brown bristlenose that I breed with albinos and I get 100% long fin brown bristlenose babies, and no albinos at all. So apparently the long fin gene and the brown coloring are dominant and we're passed together. But I'm not certain because I've only done this with a couple of pairs like this.
Anyways, yes it is fascinating, but having been doing what you are trying for a long time, I find that my guppies still have the primarily dominant long Tails I want and the primarily dominant red color I want, still there are oddball babies born even 10 and 12 Generations later....maybe more. So apparently they simply are not a pure strain yet.
Sorry to write such a long response, but it is definitely interesting, and also I find often many people who are claiming to have new strains of Guppies probably don't have a new strain but are just more commonly getting shirt and jeans to express themselves which have been present in the bloodline For who-knows-how-long!
You can find many RUclips videos where people complain that they're supposedly pure-blooded fish, when bred, did not have the traits they should have.... so the breeder was simply passing off what were basically mutts as a pure strain.
Thanks for long read, I need it zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. LOL just kidding. It is very interesting and I wish I had more time to develop "something" but I really don't. I am kinda doing it just for fun and content.
@@MichaelsFishRoom understood....it is cool though.
love your channel you make the content im looking for and trying to make
Thanks! Spread the word! Did you smash the subscription button?
How's this strain coming along?
It's not :(
Boom... 👍
Thanks! LOL

Or late depending on how you look at it!
Beard is looking sharp 👌
Thanks!

New Massive Monster Guppy Strain
They will be DOPE!
At what age do guppy 's mature? I want to try to breed my own strain, but I want to start with a virgin female.
Depends on water quality, stock quality and food.But in GENERAL about 6 months.
Ohhh. Michael. I'm eating Tetra Tropical Granules & some green water. Yummy! Want some? I also have some yummy #Mulmforlife if you want some? :)
I'm good for now......LOL
I ended up with a contaminated strain of 1/2 black and whites, they are a light sky blue to white tuxedo colored...I almost want to make them my own line lol
Do it!
❤️❤️
Thanks
Some mystery illness took out half my tank. But just yesterday one of the first guppies born in my tank had fry of her own. As Jeff goldbloom says "Life uhhhhhhh finds a way."
LOL......I read it in his voice in my head...
Just a few months ago I read the (pretty much) definitive article on this... apparently a team of scientists has looked at Guppy reproduction more closely and found out that the females have a lot of control over the process.
They can basically
- store the sperm
- decide when to use it
- choose between stored sperm from different males (!)
Which makes total sense... the females have no chance of getting away from the males... the males WILL have their way at some point... so the female has a system in place to also get a say in this...
the female holds the sperm and "observes" the potential fathers. If they are healthy over a certain period of time the female notes that as a pro on its pro + contra list :D
if they get eaten the female won't use their sperm... if the males don't seem to cope well with the current environment (unusually hot water, water that hasn't a lot of oxygen, whatever) the females won't use their sperm...
and obviously the female can decide that it's just not a good time to get pregnant and waits out whatever factor is making her nervous
so... the time it needs for a female to have no more sperm from a previous male stored inside her not only varies drastically... it can't be told. It's never certain.
Say you have a female with sperm from male A and B... and you put it with male C... and male C is awesome, the Brad Pitt of the fish world... so she skips the sperm from A and B and goes directly to producing the offspring of male C.
But months later C gets sick and the female decides to give those genes of male A a try....
So, that's basically what that article said. You can never be 100% sure there is no sperm from another male in the females left... only if you raised them and kept them away from any males and then put them with the male you wanna breed you have 100% certainty
Where did you find this article?
@@MichaelsFishRoom the article I read was in German, but here's one in English:
phys.org/news/2018-10-female-guppy-fish-sperm-males.html
Yes you never know but after 3 gen #1i got thee black albino mixed yellow black peck fins like a butterfly more fry an got more color changed in a couple hours 🤡😎💙
OK
Snack: Latkes
Beverage: Alkaline Water
Happy Day !! I sold 100 guppies today !!
That's awesome! Congrats! But did you make money?
@@MichaelsFishRoom Are you kidding, I got $5.00 for them. Man wanted them to put in tubs outside this summer. And I really needed to get rid of some. My tubs were grossly over stocked. 100 didn't even put a dent in the amount I have. I ran an ad on Craig'slist and he is the only one who responded. Since I sold them I had 2 females drop fry. For some reason the fry are not tender and delishes (can't spell tonight).
laura jackson wow! And you have nothing to feed them too?
@@MichaelsFishRoom Not really, I do have a good size goldfish that I have fed some to. i put 4 in the tub with the goldfish because I thought it was lonely and it ate them.
Try writing your script on a card or use an LCD screen.
It’s no fun that way....plus that would mean I’d actually have to plan what I say. 😳
I am so upset. I was moving an orange molly into my 75 gallon tank and evidently there was a guppy in the net too...My huge Angelfish ate it~! A full grown guppy. Then the AngelFish swam around for over an hour with the guppies tail hanging out of it's mouth~!! Oh yea, Unsweet tea and no snack, sorry.
I wish you the best of luck with the new strain~!!
Thanks! I guess even adult guppies are tender and delicious!

You got more of those al black males right just do it again... with the fry... i am no expert but thats what i would do
Huh?
