Well it could be a hybrid which would complicate identification. I'm not hitting on any possibilities either.

You might have to wait for him to settle out, get comfortable and color-up well. Almost looks Jack Dempsey shaped.

does anybody have feeder guppies as pets?
I've got one in my mish-mash community 55g. It came home from school with my 10yr/old son after their science project was done. Little bugger was living in a 2 liter soda bottle with some gravel, a snail and some anacharis, with another bottle glued into the top with a plant, planted in soil in it. Whole system was sealed up and any water added had to pour through the plant/dirt.

Anyway.. it turned out to be a real pretty red-finned little bugger. Ballzy little thing too. Zips around fish 10x it's size.

It looks like a hybrid - Probably won't know until it gets bigger. Looks like a good score from the shop though, keep it alive at all costs!
