How much do endler guppies cost?

Males of established strains like tiger and blue start at about £4 each. Scarcer collector lines and pre-matched breeding trios cost more — santa maria trios have topped £50 when available. Everything listed below is live current stock, priced per fish or per set as stated.

Are endlers easy to keep?

Genuinely, yes — among the easiest tropical fish full stop. They accept a wide pH range (6.5-8.5), thrive in hard tap water, need only a 30-litre tank, and eat any small food. Give them 22-28°C, a cycled filter and some plant cover and they simply get on with it.

Will endlers breed with guppies?

Yes, freely — and the offspring are fertile, which permanently mixes the lines. If you care about keeping a pure wingei strain, never house them with fancy guppies. If you just want colourful, active livebearers, hybrids are vigorous and every bit as pretty.

How many endlers should I keep?

Six or more. An all-male group gives you maximum colour with zero fry and no harassment. If you want to breed, run one male to every two or three females and add dense plants like java moss — females drop a small brood of live fry roughly every four weeks.

Where do Endler guppies come from?

Endler's livebearer (Poecilia wingei) is a close wild relative of the fancy guppy, native to the warm coastal lagoons of Venezuela — most famously Laguna de Patos. Like all livebearers in the family Poeciliidae the females give birth to free-swimming fry, and Endlers breed even more readily than guppies. Pure wild-type 'Class N' Endlers are worth seeking out, since the species hybridises so freely with guppies that much sold as 'Endler' is actually a hybrid.

Frequently asked questions

They're separate species. Endlers (Poecilia wingei) are smaller — males around 3.5 cm — slimmer, faster-moving, and wear blocky neon colour panels rather than the guppy's big flowing tail. The two will crossbreed readily, which is why we label true wingei lines and hybrids separately.
