	Welcome To Maidenhead Aquatics
		The Variatus Platy is a different species to the standard Platy, and prefers cooler temperatures.
		Variatus Platies are available in quite a large array of tank-bred colours and strains.
		Variatus Platies are livebearers, which means that the females give birth to live young.

	Encyclopedia: Xiphophorus variatus
		The variable platyfish (Xiphophorus variatus) is a species of freshwater fish in family Poecilidae of order Cyprinodontiformes.
		The species has been introduced and become established in a number of locales, including Colombia, Singapore, and Hong Kong, the latter of which reports a negative impact on native species; the species is considered a potential pest.
		variatus is also known by a variety of other common names, including variable platy, variegated platy, Indian platy, parrot platy (Ger.

		Social Control of Adult Size in Males of Xiphophorus variatus
		As in other species of poeciliid fish, male Xiphophorus variatus (Pisces, Poeciliidae) virtually cease growth at maturity.
		The size of an adult male, then, is determined by its average growth rate before it reaches maturity and the age at which this happens.

		Xiphophorus evelynae, the Pueblo Platy, comes from the upper mountainous regions of central Mexico in the Rio Tecolutla basin in Puebla.
		Xiphophorus evelynae was found in a quiet pool that extended 20-25 feet off the main river.

		The group includes two species, Xiphophorus maculatus, referred to as common platies, and Xiphophorus variatus, usually referred to as variatus platies.
		Variatus platies tend to be somewhat longer in the body with distinctive spotting on the flanks, with a longer and differently shaped dorsal fin.
		The most common types of variatus platies which I have seen in pet stores include the sunset variatus (rich gold color in the body with a dull reddish tail) and strawberry variatus (lighter yellow body with a bright red tail).

		Den Schwertträger, Xiphophorus helleri, haben wohl die meisten Aquarianer gepflegt und gezüchtet.Leider lässt die Qualität der in vielen Zoohandlungen erhältlichen Platys X. maculatus oft viel zu wünschen übrig und X variatus ist in der alten Form blau gepunktete Männchen mit herrlicher gelber Rückenflosse und roter Schwanzflosse - nicht mehr aufzutreiben.
		Xiphophorus xiphidium wird in der Literatur in verschiedenen Farbschlägen gezeigt.
		Xiphophorus xiphidium ist in der Nachzucht ebenfalls einfach, die Wurfzahlen überschreiten selten 10.

	Xiphophorus helleri lyretail
		One of the most popular varieties of Xiphophorus helleri among aguarium hobbyists is the lyretail one, also called the dragon swordtail.
		This type of swordtail is very hard to breed, since most of the swordtails available in the hobby today are hybrids of X.helleri with X.maculatus and some times X.variatus.
		In my exrerience with the Xiphophorus genus I keep the females in separate tanks,, away from the males in order to control the number of births.

		As in the sunset platy (Xiphophorus variatus), there is a fl spot in the region of the vent in both sexes.
		This so called "gravid spot" is most normally pronounced on females which are pregnant, and is caused by the dark eyes of the embryos showing through the thin body wall.
		Both "species" may be crossed with relative ease, although the offspring of such crosses often develop rnelanistic tumours.

		Platy fish are in the classification of Xiphophorus, which are livebearers and freshwater fish.
		There are three types of Platies, Xiphophorus maculates, Xiphophorus variatus, and Xiphophorous xiphidium.
		Average length is up to 2 inches, because the females tend to be larger than the males.

		The unknown species has also been compared to three other species of fish, thought to maybe be close relatives: Poecilia sphenops (Ps), Xiphophorus helleri (Xh), and Xiphophorus variatus (Xv).
		A Blast search is a way to determine the identity of a DNA sequence, using a search engine that compares the unknown sequence with thousands of other sequences that other scientists have already determined.
		Based on physical observations, a morphological phylogeny was constructed (Fig 1.) The results showed that Xiphophorus helleri and Xiphophorus variatus were the two most closely related species.

	It can't be eggs in my tank
		This was the first thought that crossed my mind when Johnny called to tell me that there were some little things like eggs in my small planted tank.
		Imagine a tank with 5 Xiphophorus variatus, 5 Corydoras sterbai and an LDA016 brown ancistrus.
		The Corydoras sterbai produce far larger eggs (actually one of their eggs would be the same size as the whole cyst) so we have to forget about them, too.

		Xiphophorus fishes are currently utilized in research and are also maintained as pets. Therefore, articles span a diverse range of sub-topics and are published in a wide array of journals, magazines etc. Recent advances in cancer and behavioral research using these fishes has resulted in a drammatic increase of Xiphophorus-related publications.
		The purpose of this site is to provide information to both the research community and the general public regarding the fish genus Xiphophorus.
