Wells....I have an interesting question/problem.

I am attempting to breed my swordtails, and I've heard that the lyretail swordtail males are not able to breed. sweatdrop Does anyone know if this is true or not? He definitely tries to mate- lol- but he doesn't seem to be having sucess with any of the females in the tank. So. Does anyone know?

o.o
How would the species ( or is lyre tail a mutation? )continue?
Seems unrealistic, but then again I have heard of stranger.

Indeed, this sounds strange. I've kept swordtails in the past, but haven't successfully had any breed due to several factors at that time. Anyway, I'll try to give you some advice based on my limited knowledge. First, check your water quality. Another thing you may want to try is to give your male more females to choose from. You may have to experiment like Lizzy said in a previous post.
