I know what endlers are and what they look like. But are they guppies or what? I've heard them called endler's guppies, but what are they really?

They are related. Guppies being Poecilia reticulata and endlers Poecillia wingii.

Endlers are a wild fish. Guppies have been bred into fancy varieties for years. They will interbreed readily and some lines of fancy guppies have endler blood.

Does anyone know if endlers can have blue colorings without any red? I bought a feeder fish that I thought was an Endler but it has more of a clear, round tail and 2 little black dots on its sides with peacock-blue coloring around the edge of the black dots. I'm trying to breed it to gambusia in an outdoor tub pond just to see what results.. Doesn't look like a Japan blue guppy either but I can't find a pic of anything similar -sorry I dont have a photo, but he's small like an endler.
