Are hybrids of two separate species superior to purebreds?
Did you know that most hybrid animals can't sexually reproduce due to the fact they have a mixed number of chromosomes. Therefore, hybrids are not their own species. The purpose of this research paper is create a list of resources to assist in the experimentation required to answer the above question in italics.
According to Elaine Thompson, fish have many methods of laying eggs. The first is egg scattering, where the male chases the female as while they are spawning, and the eggs are fertilized as the fall. They are usually scattered on gravel and weeds. The second method is substrate spawning, when eggs are laid on substrate. Plants, rocks, wood, and…show more content… Younger fish are more vulnerable to water chemistry, disease, and temperature change, and must be fed fish food when yolk sacs disappear. In conclusion, the endlers and guppies will have a separate spawning tank with mesh or substrate at the bottom, and the frys will be fed fish food when their yolk sacs…show more content… Guppies are tropical fish and are usually very peaceful. They were named after Robert John Lechmere Guppy, who thought they were an undiscovered species. Male guppies have smaller bdies and bigger fins than female guppies and have a long anal fin used in fertilization. In females, the fin is much more triangular in shape. Males also tend to be more colorful than females. Guppies are omnivores, like most fish, and benefit from vegetable food. Their upturned mouth is also good for eating wriglers. Guppies thrive in fairly hard, alkaline water, and can tolerate large amounts of salt. They can die in normal freshwater aquariums due to Columnaris Disease. A temperature of 75° Fahrenheit is good for guppies.Hybrids can also occur between Guppies and the Endler. These are reported to be fertile, and can breed unlike most hybrids. Guppy-Endler’s liver bearer crosses are
