The swordtail (Xiphophorus hellerii) is a popular aquarium fish belonging to the Poeciliidae family.

Endler’s guppies
Endler’s guppy (dwarf guppies) – this fish has recently begun to appear in the aquariums of amateurs. Endler’s guppy was described and introduced to the world by John Endler, who discovered this fish in one of the lakes in Venezuela. Poecilia wingei is endemic to several bodies of water in Venezuela and is found nowhere else in the world in the wild. However, thanks to the lectures of its discoverer John Endler in aquarium culture, this wonderful fish is probably already widespread all over the world.
