: I was perusing the booklet that comes with the AZD2WG CD and noticed that they've given definitions of the different types of guppies. Specifically, these are:

: 1. Mosaic
: 2. Tuxedo
: 3. Cobra
: 4. Solid
: 5. Albino
: - and -
: 6. GLASS

: The first five have all been addressed within these forums. The last one has me intrigued! The booklet says: "The pattern of their tail is very fine and ths spots are comparable to the Mosaic type". So now I am wondering this: is this "glass" variety really just what we've been calling the "small pattern" mosaic, or is it a totally separate guppy type that isn't yet available?

: So far, the other five types as described are each distinctly separate types, suggesting that the Glass type is, too. The Solids, Tuxedos and Mosaics are, of course, included with AZ. The Cobras and Albinos are available as add-ons. So, are we going to see yet another type available at the AZ store in the future? Or are we already dealing with this trait as a sub-feature of the Mosaic type?

Where exactly did you see this information? I'd like to look it up too.

Given the fact that AZ has already shipped the other types separately, I'd guess that "Glass" is a type independent of the others. I guess only time will tell.
