Re: black gambusa
Michael: Interested in trading some of the black gambusia for the fw
sponges. BTW, melanistic gambusia are primarily males, however,
selective breeding can result in mottled females also. Except for
highly melanistic and isolated populations, generally the ratio is 1
melanistic gambusia per 500 in a "normal" population.
