1- Hi-fin pineapple albino swordtails
In 2006, I obtained this strain of splendid hi-fin pineapple albino from one of the best hobbyist breeder of fancy Xiphophorus in the U.S.A: Darrell E. Mefford from KY. Over time, I have perfected it by working on fixing the pineapple pattern (orange saddle with metallic white body and head) as well as developing the hi-fin dorsal by out-crossing to red “sailfin” albino. The result is a very developed hi-fin and a stunningly colored fish. Not bad for an old classic strain of swordtails.
Body: White to metallic – orange saddle
Caudal: orange
Dorsal: orange
Eyes: albino
