Hey everybody. Thought I would have some fun and test some fish skills. Just for fun can anyone name the 4 species of livebearer in the picture. And name the 2 other species of fish in the picture. And for added skill throw in all the scientific names. I will give this a week and reveal who if any has all the correct answers. Hint there is 2 domestic type and to wild type livebearers. Good luck. Attachments:
