Ive been keeping guppies for a long time and glass bellies are some of the ones that i never manage to breed successfully, unlike other guppy variants where i get 20+ of the fry surviving till adulthood, i only ever got 3 to 8 of em surviving

[@TheDave333]

They are a bit more delicate (fry and adults) and smaller than regular guppies. The fry also seem to be heavily male, rather than female. It may be temperature dependent.

I just received my second order (fm a different seller) of "see through" ribbon koi guppies fm eBay and it's another flop. These koi breeds don't have the visible digestive track, they come virgin, they're only 1.5cm, and the males' gonopodium are so long they are useless to inseminate. I'll check out the other listings and ask before I purchase this time. Thank you for bringing awareness to this very interesting breed of guppy.

[@christopherroden2412]

Very beautiful footage! Could you shine some light on the information about guanine?

[@TheDave333]

@Christopher Roden Sure! Guanine is in everything, because it's one of the four nucleic bases in our D.N.A. and our R.N.A. So, even though the glass belly guppy can't make guanine, it's still in the DNA, because the double helix in DNA is self-replicating. . . When it comes to fish coloration. The colors are a product of special cells known as Chromatophores. Their are several types of chromatophores. The ones responsible for iridescent colors and the metallic silver that so many fish have are known as Iridophores. Iridophores use minerals / crystals that form thin glass plates that capture and reflect light causing the white light to break up like a prism into many different colors. This is how iridescence works. The specific colors that are produced depends on the angle at which the light strikes the guanine plates, as well as the arrangement of the plates themselves. . . They can produce any color under the rainbow, and they're responsible for the metallic colors in fish. I'll eventually do a video on the details of fish coloration . . . It's deep.
