The Cumaná City Centre 2013 Endler (Poecilia wingei) is a locality-specific Endler's livebearer with documented provenance.

In the Endler hobby, locality is everything. Each natural population of Poecilia wingei has evolved distinct colour patterns adapted to its specific habitat. The Cumaná City Centre 2013 collection represents a documented snapshot of one such population. Maintaining the purity of this strain preserves a piece of natural biodiversity that may be lost in the wild due to urbanisation.
This listing includes one male and one female. Males display the vivid Cumaná City Centre colour pattern, while females are larger and silvery-olive. From a single pair, you can establish a self-sustaining colony within months. Provide dense planting with java moss or guppy grass to give fry natural cover.
Peaceful with all small species. Compatible with other Endlers (keep separate to maintain purity), dwarf shrimp, and small tetras. Explore our Endler collection including HB Green Endlers, Campoma N40 Steel Tail Endlers, and Endler Females.
