Black Swordtail Tips

Subject: Black Swordtail Tips
by JasonJ514 on 2011/12/13 21:25:58

Hey guys,

I have a few fresh black swordtails in a 29 gallon outgrow tank. So far I have 2 males with what looks to be 4 females.

4 of the fish (including the 2 males) have orange top fins and are starting to show orange in the tail fins.

2 of them are black with clear (which looks to be coming in with a blue tint) fins.

Here is my question: should I try to breed the 2 males with the orange finned females, the blue finned females, or just let them all go and see what happens?

I absolutely love black swords with orange or red fins, so that is my main goal...
Do I breed the orange finned blacks together, or try to breed another completely orange male from my community 75 with the orange finned females?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
