Who else has HIGH anxiety when mark was casually talking as the mama guppy was chasing her fry around the tank??
Lucky my mother guppy died i got 10 fries
For my 66th birthday, my son got me an Aqaurium. So it is not always young folks getting into the hobby.
When I had the first incarnation of my shop I had a large polytunnel where I grew pond plants in various containers and I put endlers and guppies into loads of large green water containers from late spring to early autumn. They fed on mosquito larvae, daphnia and whatever flies went into the tunnel (I left a light on during the night to attract midgies in) so they had perfect food.
I wish I was making videos then as the colours which were on some of the hybrids were incredible - we put them in the shop and all sold in one weekend, lol
Can't wait to see what you get from this experiment.
It's the same in my workshop all the insects from my koi pond hatch out and invade the tanks to their doom. Should get some nice colours from these. And yes I wish I was in to RUclips back then I was breeding and keeping all different fish from black diamond stingrays alligator gars would of been very interesting for the viewers.
I have to admit I wouldn't have watched back then as I have a bit of a thing about people keeping big fish species so I'm very pleased you've evolved beyond that phase - The species you keep now is what my shop was full of - interesting community fish which are very happy in well made aquarium systems.
I've always liked smaller species of fish as they can be kept happier in more suitable environments.
Doing a great job filming the simultaneous breeding projects Mark! Keep up the great content!
My guppies have been producing endlers hybrids for months. They are beautiful
Have one male developing now, that hybrid has the body coloring of the endlers and the tail is still developing, dont know if the tail will stay rounded or if it will have the fraying tail like some other regular guppies. The color is beautiful. Really curious how the other colors will develop. Tough to find the patience, takes a while to see the fish as it is fully developed.
The kids look quite nice and healthy Mark. Really looking forward to seeing what turns out with the hybridization. I can't wait until we get to the Congo tetras which are showing signs of spawning behavior every time I get a quick glimpse of them. I simply LOVE that fish.
We'll get to them John. 👍😀
Congratulations Dawn! Can't wait to see how the babies turn out Mark! Love you too Mark You are the star!
I so want to try this too..you are a mad fish professor
Congrats on the new babies, Mark.
Congrats Dawn, on that cool tank.
Thank you so much for sharing this great video as always Mark, very interesting as well. I put two females and one bared endler male together yesterday and then I went and watched the video of the same thing lol 😂. Well done Dawn in winning the coolest tank out. 👍🏻👍🏻⭐️⭐️
Nice video there mark . Will be very interesting to see how they come along . Brilliant mate
great video, i bred my black bar endlers with a guppy and iv'e never looked back,i've got a wonderful display tank now that my grandchildren refer to as the water butterflies. love your channel,something for everyone. x
Great project Mark I love live bearers especially Endler guppies, well done Dawn for winning the fish tank 👍🏻
Where are the updates? I really wanna see how they look now... Please update....
Update.

Awesome! Thank you so much. They are beautiful. Love your videos
Awesome video! Thanks for the inspiration! Now I need tank number 4 and get some big guppy ladies for my endler boys!
You are wonderful thank you! 🙏
I'm doing exactly this right now, Japanese blue endler males and unknown fancy guppy females from a beautiful mother
Looking forward to watching these little hybrids grow up!
I love your Black Bar Endlers. This is going to be very interesting to see.
Cool tank design Mark...wow! Lucky gal :)
That little tank you made is awesome mate looks Stella, 👍🏻🇦🇺
great stuff as always bruv..can`t wait to see there adult colours..
got guppies when I was a kid....did cichlids.....tetras ...salt water fishes....but always end up with endlers or guppies. Great video...keep it up.
I can't wait to see how these turn out. I'm breeding a mix of endlers that have hybredzed with cobra guppies down the line. Thank you for sharing :)
TheAquaticBeast98 No problem. Thanks for watching 😀👍
i have done it before seeing this video .. the fry turn out to be awsome . beautiful color pattern .. its does make a nice match
Congrats Dawn!
So funny I'm glued to my phone watching your youtube videos lol
Looking forward for the collors mate
Beautiful and beautiful colors 😍
Your tank designs are so unique! I just love'em!! When I was a kid our first fish were guppies. Then later on in my adult years, I bred angel fish. We used to breed guppies and feed guppy babies to the angels. It was so wild to see the angels hunt for them.
Thanks for watching.👍😀
What i like to do is crush some spirulina waffers and tetra min flake food in a peslamorter to a fine fine dust. Then use a paint brush to dust some in 2 times a day. Then go over to artemia after about a week. Another awsome video sir thanks Happy fishkeeping.
"Other rooms in the house which your wife would like to do other things with" Lol story of my life
Lol Thanks for watching.👍😀
Wonderful
Great videos full of great information for young or old keep up the great work buddy
I put Japanese Blue boys with Regular Endlers and I'm getting stunning red and blue Endlers. I can hardly believe my eyes they're stunning. Next project Tiger Endlers with albino and regular Endlers... Looking forward to black add and stripes. :)
Love the vids!
We are glued to our phones watching you😉 great video.
Great entertaining videos and no licence fee to pay. What’s not to like. Last Christmas I was given half a dozen endlers male and female. Put them in my tank with neons and dwarf corys. Ended up with hundreds of them as a guess 400. Luckily I could return them , and I kept 4 hopefully only males. They are beautiful little fish and as you show in your video very easy to breed.
Yep they breed super easy! A great first time fish for getting in to breeding.👍😀
Nice Video I working on Endler cross breed Fancy Guppy too
I was trying to make tiger endlers and this video will help a lot 👍
I’m doing something similar. But I bought an endless male, 4 of them to be exact, and I’m breading them with wild guppies we caught in a spring near here. They’ve had babies now, I’ll let you know how it turns out Mark! This is fun! Tank on!
Yes please do. If you join my facebook page you can show us all some pictures.👍😀
I agree with keeping fish as a way to get away from tv and phones. I was never phone heavy but now I just love my tanks. Bettas, guppies and endlers with live plants.
Looking forward to the updates on these guys. I counted at least 40. Endlers and guppies are my favorite fish, leaning to the endler side. I love it when you give the bench tank a good long viewing and I can watch your black bars playing. That one with the black tail is gorgeous, looks like he might be a hybrid himself. Some of the most beautiful guppies are endler/guppy hybrids, as I'm sure you already know. :)
Just really looking forward to seeing how these turn out. With her being what looks to be at least partly a dumbo ear, there will probably be some really stunning ones in there.
If you want an idea on something that's even more underappreciated than endlers, look at picta guppies, also known as swamp guppies. They are really getting hard to find here in the states, with prices up to $125 a pair (when you can find someone that even has them in stock).
Yes they're hard to find these days. Thanks for watching.👍😀
Hi, Just found you. Great video just subscribed, Looking forward to see how guppy and endler cross turns out. I have guppy and platy tank and have goldfish tank, they are a few years old now .Keep fish for years. Thankyou.
Thanks for watching.👍😀
Nice congo tetras!!
Good review 👍
Thanks! 👍
very nice videos series thank you
Very nice spawn 👍
👍 good job
I've been breeding my own endler/guppy x for about five months - based on a flag tail hybrid I found in the local shop and a Japan blue female. I've also introduced a female San Jose endler from a group I keep and what I've noticed is that the physical characteristics - tail, colouring etc come from the male with (apparently) temperament coming from the female (that Japan Blue was a monster - combative, bad tempered generally - thankfully the San Jose are a more laid back group). The local shop is happy to take the extras, so I'm not overflowing too badly :)
Sounds like your having fun breeding your fish. 😀👍
Congos probably eyeballed her!
Good video
Can't wait to see how they colour up. can you make a vid how you made that nano tank pretty nice invention ;)
I'll be back on the tools once the breeding series is done.👍😀
I bought 4 different strains of male endlers and bred them with 4 pure guppy females of different strains. One year later I have a 40 gallon cube tank full of the prettiest mutts on the planet. Its pure fun!!
New subscriber this mixture seems interesting🙂🙂
Thanks for subscribing 😀👍
You got a new subscribe I’m going to start breeding some guppies too starting off a lyretail delta male with a female fancy guppy see how it goes!!!💯🙏🙏
congrads dawn
I bred 1 male two yellow females and got the red chrome gendler and the leopard fires been doing hybrids for a few years and now on the guppy endler platy hybrids life span 2.5 years add calcium blocks and powdered koi pond sticks for colour
Hi Mark, just noticed that you use sintered glass filter media as substrate, do you find this works to kick start a tank? I just used some of this that I grabbed out of a filter as I wanted to quick cycle a small tank for quarantining some new fish. Reckon it should help?
Hello mark i recently came across a species id never seen or heard of ,the betta macstroma ,would you consider having a go at breeding them ,and i ll look at what you do and try and give it ago cheers mate keep up the good work
I got one Guppie it looks like she got a flame on her tail and I already got 7 fry from her and I bred her with a Delta blonde can't wait for the Color to come out on the fry
that prototype tank is awesome id buy one!!! do u build custom tanks to order?
No I just build them for a hobby. Thanks for watching.👍😀
I had one that looked like the one you got with the bad stomach. It lasted two weeks and was eating fine but it died off.
what kind of plant do you have at the top left sir?
I bought new fish, and 2 weeks later I put them in my community tank. According to the trader, 2 weeks of quarantine was a long time. But within 1 day all the fish became critically ill and I had to start over.
Therefore this question: how long should you quarantine new guppies? One month? Half a year?
How do you prevent the female from birthing spring from males it already mated with
Will endlers survive outdoors in a rice fish 5 gal pond?
some endler and guppy females can grow to what are called "giant" sized females. They also seem to live longer and produce more fry.
Whats the type of floating plant you have?
how long do ur guppies live mine only last a few months they have babies then die very wierd any ideas thanks
You make it look so easy, but it isn’t easy at all, the breeding process needs patience
Is it possible to get pure endler female fries from a endler father guppy mother?
Can a male guppy cross breed with a female endler ? I'm a curious beginner.
Got a question are Endlers now days same as the Wild Guppies from the 70'S.
Endlers and guppies are the same specie of fish so interbreeding is a given. Would be nice to see the genetic results. Is this something others would want to do?
I have five endler hybrids I can't do a thing with. The hybrids are a dime a dozen here. I'd literally send mine to you for just shipping. They're just taking up a tank!
They do breed very quickly. Put them up for free on your local free add someone is always looking to start up . 👍😀
More videos of these guppy cross breedings please
Can't wait to see how these turnout, I've got 2 similar females with a male with black tails.
You said u would be putting updates?? I can't find them??
Never had guppies myself
I remember back in 1997, when I got my first 55 L aquarium, I woke up one morning and saw a guppy babies swimming among floating plants. After some time corries start to lay eggs in community tank and then I was like:"Wtf I should do, I'm still a noob in fish keeping"
You must of had very good water conditions for them to breed. Thanks for watching.👍😀
Maybe I hit a "jackpot" with water conditions as I said it was my first time having an aquarium as 14 yrs old kid. Now after 12 years of fish keeping inactivity want to start all over again, but this time is different as I have 7 yrs old son, and also want him to introduce him into this beautiful hobby. And as you said to keep him away from Playstations and Xboxes. Currently I'm in "clash" with my wife, as I have some idea's where to put aqariums in our house, but she would like to do other things with :-)
Tankyard well I hope you and your wife come to an agreement and you get your tanks boys. 😀👍
Not sure how I feel about diluting the endler genes, always kept mine pure ( as I could). Anyway all fun I guess....👍🏻
Same here. Guppies are beautiful in their own right, as are endlers. I see no point in mongrelising them tbh.
lol I used to be under the common impression that endlers were super-rare and threatened with extinction but they're nowhere near as endangered as people think... Tons of them around, even females. If you want to breed pure endlers all you need is an eBay account and you'll find male and female endlers within 10 minutes.
I know that they're supposed to be losing their habitat in the wild due to pollution but there's so many around in captivity that we'll have no problem replacing the losses once the country it's in (think it's Venezuela) catches up to the rest of the western world and the pollution drops.
In this day and age with how weak guppies are, I find hybridising them with a much less inbred species to be very useful for their diversity and hardiness, not even taking into account the natural diversity of hybrids. On top of that, the male hybrids tend to look highly impressive; my 1/2 yellow micariff 1/2 endler males both look very unique and attractive. Females are drab as hell but that's partially fixed by adding more female guppies, something that I'm currently looking into carefully as to not add disease bombs into my stock and kill my hard work...
With how selected and unnatural fancy guppies are, there's no point in pretending there's any sort of purity or natural order to protect with hybridising them. There's something to argue with endlers but this kind of argument for fancy guppies is invalid. In fact, hybridising them with endlers is probably more natural than what we've done to them over the years...
@Alpha Centauri With all due respect, what the hell are you talking about? Nobody said anything about endlers dying after hybridisation...
Although I agree with the rest of your comment, endlers are much more common than they used to be. Back when I was only a 10 year old kid getting a few colourful guppies for my little 5 gallon tank (which I still use to keep shrimp and raise cory fry), endlers were nowhere to be found. In the past few years though, lots of people have started breeding them and you can usually find them in a store if you look hard enough, and a quick search on eBay brings up plenty of results. They're not rare and there are plenty of pure endlers being bred as we speak. The only problem is that any sexually reproducing organism can't start appearing out of nowhere; due to their explosion of popularity, a lot of inbreeding has started and most captive stock has inbred history. Although they are nowhere near the level of other fish, if inbreeding continues then it will eventually get to the point where guppies are at now: deformities with every batch of fry no matter how good the parents are, severely weak immune systems, next to no hardiness etc. etc.. The list of problems goes on. You can cull physically unattractive or deformed individuals, but you will never be able to test who has the best immune system, and it will inevitably decline as inbreeding goes on. Inbreeding won't cause genetic abnormalities from one generation, or two or five, it's over tens or hundreds of generations of selective breeding that these severe defects start becoming more common. Look at Kaimuki Backyard's stock. He's been inbreeding sunset micariffs at a rate of 3 or 4 generations a year for about 9 or 10 years now. Considering that he started from already extensively inbred stock, the outlook doesn't look good. It's got to the point where genetic defects like giant guppies, theoretically impossible yellow micariff fry and large numbers of hunchbacks as he calls them popping up. That's just the tip of the iceberg though; they probably have huge deficiencies in multiple organs and systems, and unhealthy hyperactivity or hyperefficiency in others, most importantly the immune system. I don't know for sure but they might be getting to a point where decreased fertility might be becoming a problem. It's only a matter of time before his stock crashes and burns with some sort of genetic disorder that is impossible to prevent with that level of inbreeding; perhaps an entire generation is born with physical defects or are giant guppies, or perhaps the colour starts to degrade; his guppies look a lot different from how they used to; there is much less orange in the tail of the males than there used to be. His stock is some sort of horrific genetic disorder waiting to happen, and is why you should try to introduce new blood every four or five generations, even if it is the same strain and is still distantly related. A couple generations of third or fourth cousins breeding is much better than brothers and sisters inbreeding uninterrupted. From what I can see, he never introduced new blood into his original sunset micariff line. His new neon micariff line will obviously take a lot longer to reach the same level as it has a non-inbred background... sort of. Less inbred than most strains.
Fancy guppies did come from wild guppies back in the 70'S.
When and where are more cucumber feeders going on sale?
Having some problems with my laser cutter but hopefully I'll have going again soon.
Hi mate I've got a male guppy chasing a female around my tank for the last 24hrs are there mating or is he just being annoying to her
It could be mating or she maybe trying to give birth. The males will sometimes will eat the young as they are born. 👍😀
Do they grow very big? Endless are tiny
No they only get to around 4 to 5 cm
@@MARKSAQUATICS thanks
For some reason my guppys look like elders but they're not
Are the offspring sterile?
No they are fertile. 😀👍
Spotted a guppy fry in my tank today just as the large female guppy swims up and eats it ... No more fry that I can see :(
Sorry to hear that. Put some floating plants on the surface for the next fry to hide in and they'll be ok.
Hi dont know I if you can help, I have a pregnant guppy who has turned yellow is she sick
How is the guppy doing today.
@@MARKSAQUATICS they still yellow

Guppies are great for starter fish, I started with guppies myself :)
I paused the video and I counted about 30 fry thought there could be another 5-10 behind the java fern and the riccia.
Your right I counted 38! should get some awesome colouration from these. 👍😀
I did a recount and got 35 +/- 5. I suspect that there around 40 total. I had endler/guppy crosses too back in the 80s. I think I even had one that was a endler/guppy hybrid platy cross. It had the size and finage of a large male endler/guppy cross and the coloration of a sunburst platy. Narrow but long dorsal fin and a spade shaped caudal fin. He was my favorite, but I never got any more like him even though I separated him out with his own harem of females of endler/guppy crosses and platys. I suspect he was sterile. The females with him did have fry but I suspect they were from other previous fathers as they looked nothing like him when they matured. None of the young females I added seemed to get pregnant. :(
He was a stunning bright golden yellow with metallic flecks on his front half darkening to a burnt orange on his back half with the spade tail having a red dot in the center of an bright orange field and bright yellow-white edging. His eyes had the endler/guppy blue ring around it. I so wanted to make a strain of guppies from him and was doing to call then Star Burst guppies after him. The only guppy I ever gave a personal name to.
I think your right at 40! Yes now and again you get a real special fish come out. 👍😀
Show the result please
The video is called Endler guppy hybrid update.😀👍
This didn't work out for me at all. The female offspring are completely identical to the guppy female, and the males have absolutely no variance in their body coloration, they are plain copper at their heads transitioning into black toward their tail just like the females, only their tail fins have some color variation to them.
Why dilute the endlers? They are endangered! 😲
You can get some amazing colours and just to show people it can be done. I've got over 50 pure black bar endlers in another tank just for them.👍😀
Un guppy est déjà un hybride et son guppy endler aussi, donc un hybride avec un hybride reste un hybride encore plus fragile. Chez nous on appelle ça de la soupe, aucune valeur pour les puristes de wingei de campoma ou cumana.
