| Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are popular in freshwater aquariums worldwide, being members of the Poeciliidae family and live-bearing. Originating in northeast South America, they have been introduced around the globe. |
These Green Moscows are older, and sexed.
These are Juveniles between 6-12 weeks old at the moment, and are ready to breed immediately. They are sill growing, however, and will need a couple weeks to reach full size and coloring.
The adult females show wonderful graduated smoky blue- grey coloring on tails and bodies, and the males have striking iridescent Green- blue coloring throughout their entire bodies. Both sexes have fluttery delicate draping dorsal fins. It's honestly tough to get an accurate picture of these stunning creatures.
Super flashy when light hits! These are active beautiful babies, who flit all around the tank, but are mostly top water column feeders. They grow to an average length of 1"-1.5".
Remember, if your temperatures are below 40 Degrees Fahrenheit, you must purchase a Heat Pack for the Live Arrival Guarantee to apply! One needed per order; find it here: LIVE ANIMAL HEAT PACK
Cassandra's Notes:
I personally feed them everything from the OmegaOne flake and pellet line, to both frozen and live fish foods, to blanched veggies. Guppies are generally not picky eaters and will accept a wide range of meaty, quality food.
Guppies are easy to please. They live in a wide range of freshwater tanks and would prefer community, planted tanks. Guppies should not be kept with nippy fish that might pick on their long, flowing tails.
They can also be kept with peaceful invertebrates such as shrimp and snails, however there should be plenty of hiding spaces for any baby shrimp you wish to keep.
