Currently, I have mainly black female guppies available. More colours and strains will be added soon.

Guppies are one of the most popular and colourful community fish. The bigger the tank, the better (40L minimum). Females grow larger and eat more, so they need the extra space and plenty of hiding areas to escape from the males when they need to rest. Fill your tank with live plants and watch them thrive.

Essential Guppy tip: As livebearers, guppies need extra minerals, especially calcium and magnesium, to support bone development, healthy growth, good colouration, and overall vitality. They appreciate a GH of 4 plus. Test your tap water and increase the hardness if needed.  I recommend Seachem Equilibrium to safely boost GH and provide all the essential minerals your Guppies need. Your plants will also benefit greatly from Equilibrium.

Water Conditions
• Temperature: 22–27°C
• pH: 6.5–7.8
• Hardness: Medium to hard water preferred
• Tank setup: Plants, open swimming space, gentle flow

Diet
Micro pellets, crushed soldier fly larvae, baby brine shrimp, and daphnia. Also feed cooked veggies like peas (deshelled and mashed), as this helps with digestion and gives them a healthy, natural treat. You can also try cooked baby marrow and gem squash.

Additional Information
Guppies breed readily in home aquariums. Keeping more females than males (e.g., 2–3 females per male) reduces stress. They thrive in well-planted tanks, and live plants help fry survive if breeding occurs.
