Wings of Fire Dragin Guide, Part Five: HiveWings and SilkWings
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a HiveWing, or hive dragon. They have red, orange, and/or yellow scales, but always have some black scales on them as well. They are distantly related to SilkWings. Their powers can range from wrist/tail/claw stingers, the ability to shoot some stingers and regrow them, venomous fangs, paralyzing toxins/boiling acid/pain-inducing venom and possibly more unexplored options. They have four dragonfly/wasp-like wings, and live in the Hives across the savanna (now partially forest) continent of Pantala. Their diet consists of zebra, gazelle, birds, snakes, sharks, fish, as well as apples,, cinnamon, honey, nectar, confectionery, and coffee and tea.. They are named after different insects except for moths and butterflies, such as:
Social insects (Hymneoptera): Wasp, Hornet, Yellowjacket...
Beetles (Coleoptera): Scarab, Weevil, Chafer, Bombardier...
Orthoptera: Cricket, Grasshopper, Katydid...
Auchenorryhncha: Cicada, Treehopper...
Larvae/Worms: Rootworm, Glowworm, Inchworm...
Arachnid: Vinegaroon...
Other insects: Mantis, Earwig, Aphid, Dragonfly...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This a SilkWing, or silk dragon, or butterfly dragon. They can be any color and shade except black, are distantly related to HiveWings, and are iridescent. They hatch with wingbuds, as they will go through Metamorphosis, where they spin a Chrysalis and form their wings like a butterfly or moth, at age six. They also inherit their silk glands and silk spinning abilities after this, but can sometimes have flamesilk, which can glow, burn, and be made of fire, but it is extremely rare. They are vegetarian, so they eat things such as tangerines, kumquats, persimmons, garbanzo beans, kale, AZ well as honey, nectar, and confectionery made in the Hives. They were once second-class citizens, until Queen Wasp was defeated and everyone was free from the Othermind (a hivemind-esque thing made up of one small evil plant, an insane *sshole of a human who is the reason the humans were almost wiped out by the dragons, and one of the dragon eggs he stole, which is the dragonet from the egg). (Yes, the Scorching, which is their event that formed the dragon tribe and world as we know it, is because this freaky little jerk of a man stole dragon eggs, thus causing other human kingdoms to do so. So the dragon parents banded together and literally scorched the world to the the ground. Then they chose the first dragon queen, and the tribes formed over the next few hundred years after...) SilkWings are named after butterflies and moths, such as:
Butterflies: Monarch, Blue, Swordtail, Fritillary, Tortoiseshell, Admiral, Heliconian, Argus...
Moths: Luna, Io, Tussock, Cinnabar, Orange, Festoon, Lappet, Burnet...

That’s the captivating essence of the red lace guppy (Poecilia reticulata), a freshwater fish species that exudes elegance. These remarkable fish boast patterns reminiscent of delicate lacework. Two notable varieties are the “Crimson Lace” and the “Ruby Filigree,” each with its unique twist on the intricate lace patterns defining the breed.

The Swordtail Platy Mix: A Beautiful Aquarium Combination
Tumblr media
If you're an avid aquarist, you understand the joy of creating a captivating underwater world within the glass confines of your aquarium. The vivid colors and graceful movements of the fish can turn your tank into a mesmerizing spectacle. One way to achieve this is by introducing a mix of species that not only coexist harmoniously but also create a visually stunning display. One such combination that has gained popularity among aquarium enthusiasts is the Swordtail Platy mix. In this article, we'll explore the world of swordtail fish and platies and discover how they can be combined to create a breathtaking aquatic environment in your home.
The Swordtail Fish: A Splendid Species
Swordtail fish (Xiphophorus hellerii) are a type of freshwater fish native to Central America, particularly found in Mexico, Honduras, and Belize. These fish are highly sought after for their striking appearance and unique characteristics. Swordtails are known for their elongated lower tail fin, which resembles a sword, hence their name. This distinctive feature adds a touch of elegance to any aquarium.
Swordtail fish come in a variety of colors, including red, orange, black, and green, and can be further categorized into different tail types, such as the lyretail and the high fin. These colors and tail variations make swordtails a versatile choice for aquarists looking to create a visually appealing aquarium.
In addition to their aesthetics, swordtail fish are relatively easy to care for, making them a suitable choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists. They have a peaceful temperament and can thrive in community tanks with other compatible species. They prefer a well-maintained aquarium with stable water parameters and a diet that includes high-quality flake or pellet food, supplemented with occasional live or frozen treats.

The Platy: A Colorful Companion
Platies (Xiphophorus maculatus) are another group of freshwater fish that have earned a special place in the hearts of aquarists. Native to Central America, just like the swordtail, platies are known for their vibrant colors and relatively easy care requirements. Their small size, peaceful demeanor, and a wide range of colors and patterns have made them a popular choice for community tanks.
Platies come in various colors, including red, blue, orange, and yellow, often with spots, stripes, or combinations of patterns that make them a lively addition to any aquarium. They have a rounded, fan-shaped tail fin, which sets them apart from the swordtail. Their modest size, typically around 1.5 to 2.5 inches, makes them an ideal choice for smaller tanks and mixed-species setups.
Platies are undemanding when it comes to water parameters and can adapt to a wide range of conditions. They thrive in slightly alkaline water with a pH level between 7.0 and 8.0. Just like swordtail fish, they enjoy a varied diet, consisting of high-quality flake or pellet food, supplemented with occasional live or frozen treats.
The Swordtail Platy Mix: A Harmonious Combination
The Swordtail Platy mix is an excellent choice for aquarists who seek a dynamic and colorful aquarium. These two species coexist harmoniously, provided you follow some essential guidelines:
Tank Size: To keep a mix of swordtails and platies, you'll need an aquarium of at least 20 gallons or more, as both species can multiply quickly.
Water Parameters: Maintain stable water parameters, including temperature between 72°F and 78°F, pH between 7.0 and 8.0, and ammonia and nitrite levels at zero. Regular water changes are crucial for their well-being.
Filtration: A good filtration system is essential to ensure the water remains clean and well-oxygenated. Both swordtails and platies appreciate good water quality.
Aquascape: Create a well-planted aquarium with hiding spots for fry and resting places for the fish. Swordtails and platies feel more secure when they have plants to swim through and seek refuge.
Diet: Both species thrive on a balanced diet, so provide them with a variety of high-quality flake or pellet food. Supplement their diet with occasional live or frozen treats like brine shrimp, bloodworms, or daphnia.
Compatibility: Ensure that the tank mates are compatible in terms of size and temperament. Avoid housing them with aggressive or fin-nipping fish.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the Swordtail Platy mix is the potential for breeding. Both swordtails and platies are livebearers, meaning they give birth to live fry rather than laying eggs. If you provide suitable conditions, you may witness the birth of colorful fry, adding an exciting dimension to your aquarium.
Conclusion
The Swordtail Platy mix is a beautiful and harmonious combination that can turn your aquarium into a mesmerizing aquatic world. These fish, with their vibrant colors and striking fin shapes, create a stunning visual display. Their relatively low maintenance requirements make them an ideal choice for aquarists of all levels of experience.
However, remember that with their breeding potential, you may find yourself with a rapidly growing population of fish. It's essential to be prepared for this and have a plan for managing and potentially rehoming the offspring. With proper care and attention, the Swordtail Platy mix can provide endless hours of enjoyment as you watch these charming fish thrive and flourish in your underwater masterpiece. So, go ahead and dive into the world of swordtail fish and platies, and create a captivating aquatic world in the comfort of your home.

I’ve been thinking about fish for the adult red cheeked mud turtle (70g) tank for a while. Aquatic arts had golden skiffia in stock and I thought it was a good sign to finally commit and order some! I was also considering kidder’s livebearers. The skiffia are extinct in the wild but well established in captivity thanks to dedicated hobbyists and professional aquarists. I’m getting 3.3 ( 3 boys, 3 girls).

I also ordered 3 wildtype green swordtails (hopefully 1.2 but they didn’t specify) to round out the tank.
.. and some new plants. Can never have too many.

Here's a question I can't seem to find an answer for. Would mixing swordtail strains have the same effect as mixing guppies? I'm very interested in the koi sanke and kohaku swordtail varieties and wondered if having both in a tank together would result in offspring that don't breed true to their parents if they mixed.
Mod @thebrackishtank
I'd be lying if I said I was an expert in fish breeding, livebearer or otherwise. But I can at least go over some basics and see if that helps?
Breeding fish basically works out to be "breed two fish together with similar traits and hope the offspring also have it". If you bred two orange Swordtails together for example, the offspring would either be orange (most likely), closer to normal coloration (greenish/silverish) or something slightly different due to random mutations. Just looking at it statistically, if you have males and females together of one variety, most offspring will conform to that look.
If you bred an orange and a blue together, you could get blue, orange, a mixture, closer to normal coloration, or something slightly different. Because they take some genes from one parent and some genes from another parent, statistically most offspring will not conform to one parent or another exactly and will instead be a mix to some degree.
There's a reason why most serious breeders remove the non-conforming offspring from the breeding pool. If you wanted to breed red Swordtails for an example, any babies that come out green have a greater chance of having green offspring and a lower chance of having red offspring. 
Probably also worth noting that, over time and allowed to breed freely, fish populations tend more towards their "wild type" traits. It makes sense - in the wild, these colors and shapes are best suited for survival and more attractive to potential partners. You see this a lot in wild goldfish populations, which after a few generations revert from orange back to bronze.
Did that help at all?

Clover Ebi and the World's Luckiest Pie
Fair Game Week, Day 2: Date/Domestic
Clover Ebi is many things. He's Captain of the Ace Ops, he's one of Atlas's elite Huntsmen, a member of Ironwood's inner circle, a damn good poker player, and an all-round decent guy. He's charming, calm, cool under fire, has a semblance that can swing the odds, and even without that he has the skills and raw talent to back up his confidence. He's a catch, basically, and he knows it.
Now if Elm could stop laughing at him as he tells himself this, that would be great. It wasn't techically a date.
Ao3 Link
Clover looked at his reflection and held up a shirt in front of himself, wondering if maybe this one would work. He’d heard Qrow occasionally make the occasional pun, usually under his breath. Maybe one of his more casual t-shirts would work. After all, he didn’t have to be in his uniform all the time.
‘Born to fish, forced to work’ stared back at him, a gift from Elm that had been delivered with a suspiciously innocent grin.
He tossed that one aside too, slowly building up a pile on the bed. He wanted to make a good impression. He may have been a workaholic, but in his own apartment, he could tone it down, treat Qrow like a friend and not just a colleague.
He was amazed that the old spy had actually agreed to come over, but if Elm’s friendship had taught him anything, it was that there was no better way to get a visitor then to offer something home-cooked and delicious.
Which was why Elm was currently snickering at him from where she leaned against the door frame, since his luck only went so far when it came to cooking, and he wasn’t going to risk it. Not on something important like this.
“What, no fishing jokes?” Brown eyes sparkled cheerfully at him, Elm in her own casuals. A pastel lavender apron protected her cream sweater, her hair out of the usual ponytail and giving her a softer look. “How about this one?” she held up a tank top that said ‘sleeves are for nerds’.
“Absolutely not,” he laughed and grabbed it out of her hands. “He wears sleeves, in case you haven’t noticed. Calling him names doesn’t make a good impression.”
“I don’t know, flexing to assert dominance might up your chances,” she mused, flicking her bangs out of her eyes.
He snorted and threw the shirt back at her face. “This is a friendly hang out, Elm.”
“Clover, when you arrested him you ignored the very important Relic just so you could stand over him spinning your horseshoe.”
“But I looked cool, right?”
“You’re a show-off.” She grinned and started folding the pile of shirts tossed haphazardly on his bed.
“You’re one to brag, miss ‘jumped off Atlas for a dare’. It’s been what, ten minutes since you mentioned that?” He helped her set them aside in neat piles to be put away later. Order and cleanliness were important.
“Okay, so we’re both braggarts. Now do you know what you’re going to wear?”
“At this point I may as well wear my fishing vest and beanie.”
“Absolutely not.” Elm held up one of his white dress shirts. “Do you still have that green waistcoat?”
------
He hovered around his kitchen as he waited for Qrow to arrive, alternating between looking around his small apartment to make sure that it was neat and taking deep inhales of the divine smell of tonight's dinner. His scroll sat next to his speaker, smooth Mantle jazz filling the air as he kept throwing hungry glances at his oven.
He heard a knock on the door and scampered over to get it, feeling oddly nervous. Sure, he hadn’t exactly dated in a while, especially not since the Fall of Beacon, but he’d had plenty of on and off relationships and dates over the years. Perhaps he just felt somewhat rusty because of the year of throwing himself into his work as part of Ironwood’s inner circle.
He opened the door and felt his heart stutter a little bit. Qrow-
Wow.
Qrow had dressed up as well, it seemed. A dark red button-up, the same colour as his cape, with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and his usual rings adorning his fingers. His hair had been slicked back, which was a pretty good look if Clover did say so himself. He’d left the top two buttons undone, a necklace with a sideways cross hanging between the divots of his collarbones. Clover recognised the necklace as one that Qrow had worn when he’d first arrived in Atlas. It suited him.  
Clover felt incredibly glad that he hadn’t taken Elm’s joking advice to wear a shirt with a bad fisherman pun on it. “Hello, Qrow,” he smiled at him, green eyes bright.
Qrow gave him a once-over that Clover hoped was appreciative and tossed a careless smirk at him, a faint slouch to his shoulders. “So you can wear sleeves.”
“If I have to,” he grinned, his usual armband wrapped over the shirt. “And you went without the cape, I notice.”
“Unwillingly. Ren stole it before I could put it on.” Qrow rolled his eyes. “Brat.”
“You didn’t steal it back? I thought you’d be good at that.” He stepped to the side a little bit. “Come in, dinner’s just ready.” Elm had left simple written instructions because she clearly didn’t trust him.
Qrow slank in past him, looking around the place with some sort of look that Clover was used to seeing in a set of lavender eyes. Clover would put money on the bet that Qrow had just spotted everything shiny and/or valuable in his apartment, and also every single point of entry. “Nice place. I was expecting something spartan, I won’t lie.”
Clover smiled proudly and closed the door. “Well, I find that having a home I actually like being in is an excellent reason to not spend all night working.”
Qrow hummed in what was probably agreement before he snorted. “Wow. The fisherman aesthetic doesn’t just stick to the weapon?”
Clover followed his gaze to his fish tank, set against the wall and large enough that his little aquarium was bright and lively. He had the water heated to provide a comfortable temperature for his fist. Danios, Platies, Swordtails, and Tetras filled the waters, darting about the habitat he’d made for them.
“I like fish,” he shrugged innocently. He’d leave out the fact that he’d named each and every one of them for now.
“Okay, I have to ask, do you actually fish?” Qrow raised a brow.
“I do, actually. One side of my family are fishermen in Argus.” He looked at his bookshelf, the top row filled with pictures while books were stacked in the other three. “My mother’s side, specifically.”
“Huh. I’ve been there.”
“I heard.” He really hoped it was exaggeration.
“... I’ve been there other times besides that. Normally I don’t get caught.” Qrow’s eyes held a teasing glint that definitely caught Clover’s interest.
He grinned back and decided to take the obvious opportunity. “So I got lucky?”
“You’re a terrible person,” Qrow snickered, watching Clover’s fish swim around.
“You think I’m great.” He flicked his pin and hoped he was right.
Qrow looked at him like he was about to answer before the alarm Elm had set went off, cutting through the Mantle jazz with a demonic screeching. Both Huntsmen jumped and immediately reached for weapons they didn’t have, attention focusing on the sound.
Clover relaxed first and strode towards the kitchen, looking at the instructions pinned to the fridge to make absolutely sure before he turned off the oven and grabbed a tea towel, reaching in to grab the shepherd’s pie. He chanted ‘please don’t burn’ in his head as a mantra and mercifully, fortunately, fantastically, it came out totally fine.
He placed it on the stove top to cool, taking a moment to just bask in the awe of Elm’s cooking skills, before he turned to grab plates and crashed headfirst into a curious Qrow Branwen, who had been looming behind him to try see what the enticing smell of dinner was.
Their skulls knocked together with a loud clonk, both of them stumbling back from the impact. Clover swore as he stepped back, one hand coming up to touch his forehead as the other went behind him, just barely avoiding the pie.
Qrow tripped over the table, sending the cutlery, both glasses of water, and a candle that Clover really should have never even got out of a cupboard over the floor and himself. Water splashed, glass shards went everywhere, a table leg snapped, and one of the napkins caught fire.
Qrow lifted his hands from where they had been clutching at his forehead, took one look at the absolute destruction he was now the centrepiece of, and let out a long-suffering groan of existential weariness. He didn’t even bother getting up, even as water soaked into his shirt.
Clover stared, gobsmacked, before he panicked and started moving his hands in useless fussy gestures. “Holy shit are you okay? I’m so sorry I didn’t see you there- how many fingers am I holding up?” What if he’d concussed him?
Qrow blinked at him, looking rather done with the situation before he threw up a hand. “Help me up?”
A smidge of colour crossed Clover’s cheeks as he realised he probably should have led with that, clasping Qrow’s wrist firmly as he pulled him to his feet. “Sorry, I should have paid more attention.”
“Don’t worry about it,” Qrow pushed his soaking wet hair out of his eyes, the back having fallen out of his usual swoop to cling to his neck instead. “I have quiet footsteps.”
Clover gave him a cursory glance, checking for damage. “I have shirts you can borrow if you don’t want to stay in something soaked,” he offered, before he processed what he was saying. Qrow in one of his shirts? With their… specific sort of camaraderie?
Qrow quirked a brow at him before a wickedly sharp grin slashed across his face, one that deepened the blush painted across the bridge of Clover’s nose. “Sure thing, Shamrock.” Clover could see nothing but future disaster in those mischievous, beautiful eyes. Qrow continued like he wasn’t being an absolute hazard to Clover’s heart health. “Just point me where I’ll find them then I’ll help you clean up.”
Clover swallowed and kept his voice steady. “My room, just to the left of the main room. The door on the right. There’s folded clothes on the bed, you can borrow one of those if you need to.”
Qrow patted his shoulder, let go of his wrist, and sauntered off, stepping gracefully around the broken furniture.
Clover looked at the disaster that had been his table and made an executive decision that Elm’s cooking was and always would be more important. He fetched two plates and some cutlery, dividing the shepherd’s pie neatly in half before serving it up. He carried the plates out to his living room, setting them on his coffee table with the cutlery before fetching more water.
He didn’t know what Qrow’s story was with alcohol, but he’d said that he’d given up, so Clover wasn’t about to serve him some for dinner. That would be in very poor taste.
He waited for about a minute before he heard Qrow’s husk. “Hey, Shamrock, where do you keep your towels.”
“Linen cupboard, I’ll grab you one.” He got off the couch and made sure to get the softest one he had, rapping his knuckles on the bedroom door.
Qrow pulled it open and grabbed the towel, immediately rubbing his hair with it. Clover looked at the shirt he was in and wanted to go stab himself with Kingfisher’s harpoon, ‘fishing saved me from becoming a porn star. Now I’m just a hooker’ emblazoned over black fabric in swirly gold letters.
He should have put the puns away.
“Dinner’s ready?” He tried, feeling rather more flustered than he was used to.
Qrow smirked at him and strutted by with an absolute lack of shame, practically crashing down onto the couch as he grabbed a plate. “This smells fucking good. You make it?”
“Elm. My skill in the kitchen begins and ends with stews and boiling things. Even my luck can’t do everything.” He’d cop to it.
“I’m banned from cooking anything that isn’t breakfast foods or microwaveable. It’s nearly impossible to fuck up breakfast food.” Qrow took a big heaping forkful of the world’s luckiest pie and shoved it all into his mouth in one big bite. Clover couldn’t quite make out what the next words were, they got mangled somewhere between the cheesy potatoes and the meat stew, but he hazarded a guess that it probably involved appreciative swearing.
Clover did the same, and had a moment to realise that Elm had definitely outdone herself on his behalf, before he fully committed to clearing his plate entirely and buying Elm something nice.
Talk was dead. There was only them, the pie, and the fucking beautiful moment they were having with it. Before long, the plates were cleared, and Clover was left to stare at the fishing joke on one of his tops as it mocked him.
He’d had a mission plan. He hoped that the backup option of sitting on the couch wasn’t too far a step down. “I’m sorry again, about before.”
“Don’t worry about it, it was my semblance anyway.” Qrow rubbed his hair with the towel again, and Clover spotted a faint scar on his right bicep, something his longer sleeves usually covered. “The couch is comfier anyway. Better view.”
Clover  raised a brow. “Oh?” Did Qrow mean him?
“Your fish.” Qrow nodded at the tank. “They’re pretty cool. I have a dog at home. He’s Tai’s dog, really, but I’m part of the pack.”
“I’m glad that plan B worked out.” Clover had been a little too focused on the food to be worrying about fish or Qrow. But he was glad to know things still went well.
“Definitely.” Qrow picked up the plates. “I’ll help you clean up.”
“No, you don’t have to, you’re a guest.” Clover shook his head. “Don’t worry, I’ll sort it out later.”
“Later, huh?” Qrow grinned. “But we just had dinner.”
“But we haven’t had tea,” Clover wagged a finger at him with a returning smile. If nothing else, he was going to show Qrow his collection of novelty mugs. The other Huntsman would probably get a kick out of that. “Tell you what, you tell me about your dog, and I’ll point out each fish in my aquarium by name.”
Qrow barked a laugh and shifted so he was resting one knee up on the couch, turned attentively towards Clover as he lounged there like he owned the place. “Deal. So his name’s Zwei…”
-------
Clover waved Qrow off, still in the borrowed shirt, with his own soaked dress shirt under his arm, and felt like he could be floating with how light his chest was.
He dialled Elm the moment he'd closed his apartment door behind him, grinning like he'd just found a pot of gold at a rainbow's end. She picked up, just as quickly, and he could practically hear her massive grin over the scroll. “So, how’d it go, fearless leader?”
“I got a second date!” It was totally a date.
-------
Happy St Patrick's Day, everybody.

Splashing Tetra Fact Sheet
A Fish with Phenomenal Rearing Conduct.
The "Sprinkling Tetra", "Copeina arnoldi", resembles a considerable lot of the more serene tetras to keep, however its rearing conduct is remarkable. This is depicted close to the furthest limit of this article.
This stunning fish comes from South America, including the lower Amazon and Paru waterways. It develops to a length of around 3 inches (7 cm) and will live for a very long time.
Other basic names it has been called incorporate "Sprinkle Tetra", "Hopping Characin", "Showering Tetra", "Arnolds Sprinkling Tetra" and "Splashing Characin". Some other logical names that have been utilized for this fish are "Copeina arnoldi", "Copeina callolepis", "Copeina eigenmanni", "Pyrrhulina filamentosa" and "Pyrrhulina rachoviana".
Water Conditions
The Sprinkling Tetra's common natural surroundings is warm tropical. Dissimilar to a portion of the fish of the upper Amazon which is once in a while taken care of by dissolved show and can have some temperature drop, the Sprinkling Tetra's can't take lower temperatures quite well. The Sprinkling Tetra can take the 24 degrees C (75 degrees F) I typically suggest for a blended tank of tropicals, however this is the most minimal temperature I would recommend for this fish.
Nonpartisan Ph is reasonable, and a moderate measure of hardness doesn't appear to hurt this fish.
Food
The favored food of the Sprinkling Tetra is little live food, including sea-going creepy crawly hatchlings and Daphnia. They will likewise eat most typical aquarium fish nourishments and frozen bloodworms.
Colleagues
The Sprinkling Tetra is content with other little serene fish like Neon Tetras, Cardinal Tetras, Green Neon Tetras, White Cloud Mountain Minnows, Cherry Spikes, Penguin Tetras, Pristella Tetras and Glowlight Tetras. They would presumably additionally approve of Siamese Battling Fish.
I would be somewhat more careful about putting them with marginally more forceful fish like Red Eye Tetras, Silvertip Tetras, Gold Points, Rummy Nose Tetras, Scissortail Rasboras, Lemon Tetras, Ruler Tetras, Head and Tail Light Tetras, Glass Bloodfin Tetras, Swordtails, Platies, Mollies, Zebra Danios, Dark Widow Tetras, Blushing Spikes, Tiger Thorns, Paraguay Tetras, Buenos Aires Tetras Colombian Tetras; in spite of the fact that these likely could be okay with Sprinkling Tetras.

Sexing
The guys grow somewhat greater than the females. The female, when in reproducing condition, is plumper than the guys. A few people accept they can see the real eggs inside a female with eggs in spite of the fact that I have never really observed this myself.
Rearing
The Reproducing conduct of the Sprinkling Tetra is remarkable. They don't lay the eggs in the water. A couple of Sprinkling Tetras will be together under vegetation which has a leaf a couple of centimeters over the water surface. When they are prepared they will hop onto the leaf, hanging on for a couple of moments. The female lays a few eggs while the male treats them. The fish drop off. This is rehashed until the female has laid every one of her eggs. This could be up to 200 in spite of the fact that it is normally less.
The male pursues the female away; and for the following day and a half he consistently sprinkles the eggs on the leaf, keeping them soggy. The eggs incubate and the infants are washed off by the sprinkling and rapidly discover concealing spots among the plants in the water.
In the event that you can set up the somewhat particular reproducing tank, with a lot of plants, incorporating ones with great measured avoids with regard to the water, this fish is a prepared reproducer.
The children are little and will eat infusoria (protozoa) from the start. A decent stock of little live nourishments is a central point in effectively raising the infants. The infants should before long be large enough to eat screened Daphnia.

((Oh man I’m so excited if these babies are actually albino because that’s SUPER RARE.
In all the years I’ve been keeping fish not once have I EVER seen or heard of an albino swordtail.
If you Google albino swordtail fish it just shows you Kohaku swordtails with the red eye gene mutation so 👀👀👀👀👀👀))

Since I'm on lockdown with nothing to do but think about fish I decided to spend a few hours doing research into platies, swordtails, and their hybrids and based on the combination of fin shapes, breeds, body shape and temperament, I think Splish is actually a swordtail hybrid (heavy on the swordtail)... which would explain why hes getting bigger than my other platy fish along with the heightened aggression. His body is also longer than the others, which apparently can be a good indicator that hes got more of the swordtail in him. He was advertised as a sunburst platy, which I've noticed usually have more of a yellow to orange fading gradient, but my fish is just a solid, bright orange with almost red coloration towards the tail, which matches the pictures of the orange swordtails I've seen (although the colors of both are highly variable so that alone isn't definitive). Some swordtail males dont even get the signature sword!
No wonder he was so grumpy around another male.
Despite the trouble, I'm very happy to have him and I hope I can reintroduce him to the big tank eventually with better m/f ratios... but if not I would like to get a slightly bigger tank for him and maybe a friend or two or another species because even though hes not a shoaling fish he's still a social species and I feel bad about keeping him completely isolated. I've seen them housed alone before without issues but idk.. it feels rude? I feel I could do better for him.
Despite the current living situation, he doesnt seem unhappy and is no longer hiding from me when I come into the room unless its sudden and I startle him... Hes slowly starting to come to the front of the tank to see its food time again.

my fish are adorable nerds. I hadn’t turned the treadmills on for a few days, so they were all crammed around the filter swimming into the current. I turned on the treadmills just now and they all raced over to swim in that current instead.
