How long do guppies live?

Lifespan varies with genetics, strain, water quality, diet and other husbandry, so a collection page cannot promise an exact age. Use the care guide as a planning reference and focus on stable, suitable conditions for the individual fish.

Are guppies tropical or coldwater fish?

Guppies are tropical fish. Use a thermostatically controlled heater where room conditions cannot hold the species-appropriate range; heater wattage depends on aquarium volume, room temperature and equipment guidance rather than one fixed value.

Should I buy male or female guppies?

Buy a stated sex only when the exact listing confirms it. For mixed groups, OATA suggests two females per male to reduce pressure on one female, but no ratio removes the need for space, cover and observation. Same-sex groups avoid new mixed-sex mating but males may still display or chase, so keep a separation plan.

Do guppies breed easily?

Guppies are livebearers and mixed-sex groups can reproduce readily; females may also have mated before purchase. Plan for fry and rehoming before mixing sexes, and confirm the sex and sale unit on the exact listing.

What guppy strains do you stock?

The range changes with the live catalogue. Use the current product cards for available Moscow, Cobra, Tuxedo, Dumbo, Koi, Snakeskin, Leopard, Platinum, Japan Blue, Albino or mixed-colour listings.

Is it safe to buy guppy fish online?

Online delivery can be suitable when the aquarium is ready and the current packing, courier and acclimation instructions are followed. Check the delivery page for postcode coverage, the current schedule and Live Arrival Guarantee terms.

Where do guppy fish come from?

The guppy (Poecilia reticulata) originates in north-eastern South America and nearby Caribbean islands and has been introduced widely elsewhere. It is a livebearer, and selective breeding has produced the many fancy colours and fin forms seen in aquariums.
