My smaller male died today (bigger male bullied it) and with only one I think a naming contest is in order ::)

Good luck!

Sorry to hear about your small male endler.  :(

As for naming the other one, I suggest Han Solo.

Or Napoleon Solo after a character in the 1860's TV programme The Man From Uncle.


Didn't they make a film of that in recent years? Ah yes, google tells me it was in 2015.

If he's not going to have female company perhaps he should be called Unlucky.  ;D

The Lone Endler - rhymes with The Lone Ranger and has a "strong character" feel to the name.

Alternatively, how about its scientific name Poecilia wingei?

Yo Sue. 'Tis true.... and a bit of a long story that involves a very stressful house move that we're doing our best to forget...... and a dog. More elsewhere as I get round to it.

Apache, I notice that one of the suggestions here has got 2 'likes'. That's probably a fair way to choose the winning name ie the one which has the most 'likes'. Do you agree?

How about Eddie the Endler?
Does he have any markings that particularly stand out? That might make naming him easier.
