Endler Overview & History:
These are 100% pure strain "Black Bar" Endlers, one of the few original strains introduced into the hobby. They boast swirls of neon colored patches that pop out like jewels. Their unique coloration consists of vivid reds, greens, oranges, whites, and blues in endless color combinations. The "Black Bar" pure strain has a black bar on their flanks, allowing the other colors to really contrast and glow.
They are originally from the Northeastern part of Venezuela, South America, and were discovered in the late the late 1930's. They were later rediscovered by John Endler in 1975, and slowly introduced into the fish hobby. They are related to and resemble the common Guppy. This little colorful fish is always active, very hardy and truly prolific. The Endler is still rare in the hobby but is gaining popularity due to its amazing colors and ease of care. Additional detailed Endler information can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poecilia_wingei

lineage of these black bars

Hello,

I dont have any specific documentation, but my black bar strain comes from a local Japanese ADA (Aqua Design Amano) shop in San Francisco, which has an impeccable reputation, and assured me they were N class. I hope this helps.

Though I'm interested in them, $5 for one Endler is probably the most I would ever spend on them and if I were to do so, it would really help to know their lineage else it's sort of useless(not to say I don't believe you).

Understood. As mentioned, I believe they are N class due to the impeccable reputation of my source line supplier. Personally, I believe the ultimate proof is in the breeding results from the fish. My Strain's offspring (and their offspring, etc) have the vibrant black bar color / patterns. The offspring don't result in other types of Endler strain colors (nor do they produce dull colors) or patterns, which I would say attests to their gene pool not being mixed.
