The fish I have, resembles a Balloon Mooly. I have been told it could be a Hi Fin Red Eye Balloon Platy, or Swordtail. The only pics I come up with searching the net, are mine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CDkmG7PKe8

It is a Hi Fin Red Eye Balloon Platy, or Swordtail.

Looks like a platy to me, not a swordtail. The body shape is too short and angular to be a sword.

 

[OhioOilMan]

yup its a hightail redfin molly!!! I had a few of those before!

 

[Lupin]

It looks more like a cross between a platy and swordtail if you ask me. A molly? Where do you see a red variation? Besides, it isn't a molly to me.

Whatever it is, it is an interesting and pretty fish. I like it.

True, but it's still not a mollie---:silly:

It looks like a molly to me. The species is highly variable and there is some red in some P. sphenops populations.

It looks like a balloon molly that bred with a platy, not sure if that's possible, but that's what it looks like.

It's not. They're too unrelated.
