Black Nubian Hi-fin Swordtail

Black nubian hi-fin swordtails have solid black bodies with black and clear fins, and an extra hi dorsal fin. This bred variation is called hi-fin or sailfin. With the clear and black color of the tail these fish really do look like they are dragging swords. Black nubian hi-fin swordtails look great against green plants and reflect light with an iridescent sheen. We recommend the purchase of at least one pair, male and female. Pairs will tend to stay together as they swim about the tank.
