Looks fun.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that there is no true wild guppy in Singapore since guppies are not native to Singapore?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...6093948AAEGDjk

Extract from link above:

"The guppy is named after the Rev. J.L. Guppy of Trinidad, an early collector of the species from the late 1800's. Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are placed in the family as mollies and mosquitofish.

Natural habitat

The wild, original guppy is native to Central America, as well as Trinidad and northern South America. Today, many guppies are found in Asia, especially Singapore, where many fancy strains are bred in large fish farms, and shipped to pet stores all over the world."

The wild guppies are those that people have thrown into long kang etc and They breed among themselves. Some have turned out to be pretty nice.
