Hi, I was reading about another kind of fish (I think it was Kribensis), and it said the temperature of the water was what determined the ratio of male to female fry. That if you had the water to one end (the warmer end or the colder end, I don’t remember which) of the safe temp range, that you could actually produce an all male (or all female) brood of fry.
Just wanted to share that…I keep my tanks around 78-80 F and my swordtail had almost all female babies…I know nothing more as no more of my fish have had babies (though my glofish laid eggs, but I believe they were eaten by the chinese algae eater or some other fish in the tank). I believe I will be experiencing some dalmation molly fry in a month or so, though :-)
