This listing is for one Red Blonde Guppy, if you get two feel free to request genders in the note.

The Red Blonde Guppy is a distinctive variety of Poecilia reticulata guppy, crafted through meticulous selective breeding over time. Sporting a red body and tail complemented by a lighter-colored belly, it adds vibrant flair to any aquarium.

These guppies thrive in aquariums of at least 20 liters and exhibit a peaceful demeanor, making them ideal companions for tankmates of similar temperament. Larger tanks will be much more healthy especially if you intend to breed them however. While they can withstand minor fluctuations in water parameters, maintaining stable conditions for temperature, pH, and nutrient levels is essential for their well-being.

For novice aquarists, the Red Blonde Guppy is an excellent choice, given its hardy nature and lively disposition, making it a hassle-free addition to freshwater community setups.

Breeding guppies is relatively straightforward, even for beginners. To foster successful breeding, provide an aquarium with floating plants and a breeding box to shield the fry from adults, which may prey on them if left unprotected. Fry should be nourished with a diet comprising brine shrimp, micro food, and finely crushed flakes.

As omnivores, guppies benefit from a balanced diet consisting of algae-based foods and meaty fare. Incorporating algae-based flake food, freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex, and brine shrimp into their diet ensures they receive adequate nutrition.

They are great for almost any freshwater aquarium as well.

    To breed guppies:
    1. Put male and female guppy inside tank
    2. Feed food
    3. Wait
    4. Think about what to do with the million guppies you now have

    • Yup! If you get a pair of these you can do exactly rhat and sell then to us. Just make sure to keep the strain pure or they won't be worth much.

  • Are you saying that 60 liters tank is required for this particular variety of guppy? I only have 45 liters tank.
    Also Is female also in red or the usual colour of gray/silver?

    • Ah no i should clarify, 20L minimum, but if youd like to bread them larger tanks are better.

      • Thank for the quick answer.
        Are the female gray/silver in colour?

        • Yes, with a top half of the fin being red while the males have half their body red.

      • -1

        So you recommend deep frying in a vat/tank rather than a pan? Seems bit over kill for the size fish.

  • Just curious how is it going to be posted interstate?

    • Express post for next day delivery.
