Lyretail swordtail breedable?

You can breed with the females and sometimes very young males. The reproductive organ is too ornate to be functional in mature males.

Thanks!!

I have notice their dig dongs are twisted. Had read that some do insemination.

Went to Pet Supermarket in Smyrna and bought a female and young male Lyretail Swordtail.

That was amusing. I did see some Lyretail Swordtails that had a 2in ding dong. I think my male is young enough and has short enough ding dong to breed successfully.

Most breed lyre females back to regular males.
This is why you don't get a whole set of pure lyres all the time.
