Full Care Guide

Guppy Care Guide: Poecilia reticulata

Guppies are social livebearers suited to a prepared beginner, not a fish-per-litre formula. Use a mature filtered aquarium, tested neutral-to-alkaline mineral-bearing water, deliberate sex and population planning, open swimming room, cover and a separation option.

Aquarium setup

Assorted Male Guppy should be planned around stable water and a mature aquarium: start with at least 40 litres; keep temperature around 22-28C; aim for pH 6.8-8.5. Add cover, open swimming space and a steady routine before introducing new livestock.

Behaviour and tank mates

Assorted Male Guppy is peaceful and uses all areas of the aquarium. Choose tank mates that suit its behaviour.

Assorted Male Guppy should be matched with tank mates using the adult size, temperament, water parameters and feeding behaviour on this page. Introduce carefully and watch the first week after delivery.

Feeding and routine care

Offer Assorted Male Guppy flakes, micro pellets, frozen foods and algae as part of an omnivorous diet. Offer small portions, vary the diet where appropriate, and remove uneaten food so water quality remains stable.

Health, delivery and acclimation

Only add Assorted Male Guppy to a mature aquarium with stable water. When your order arrives, float and acclimate slowly, keep the lights low, and avoid feeding heavily on the first day. Watch breathing, posture, colour and appetite during the first week.

Why buy from Tropical Fish Co?

Livestock is packed in oxygenated bags with insulation and heat packs when needed, then sent by tracked UK courier with live arrival support.

Before you order

Use the facts on this page as a final check before adding Assorted Male Guppy to your basket. Confirm the adult size, water conditions, feeding style and behaviour suit the aquarium you already have, then choose tank mates that will not outcompete, bully or stress it after delivery.

If you are building a new setup, let the aquarium mature first and avoid mixing livestock with very different temperature, pH or temperament needs. A careful match at the start is usually the difference between a calm community tank and avoidable losses later.
