Fancy Guppy Pair Dumbo Red Tail

Available for Pre-Order

Fancy Guppy Pair Dumbo Red Tail, like other guppies, are tropical freshwater fish known for their vibrant colors and lively personalities. Here are some details about their care requirements:

1. Temperature: Fancy Guppies thrive in water temperatures between 72°F and 82°F (22°C to 28°C). It's important to maintain a stable temperature within this range to keep them healthy and active.

2. Minimum Tank Size: For a pair of Fancy Guppies, a tank with a capacity of at least 10 gallons (38 liters) is recommended. Guppies are active swimmers, and they benefit from having some space to swim and explore. A larger tank can accommodate more fish and provide a more stable environment.

Feeding Habits: Fancy Guppies are omnivores and have a diverse diet. They will eagerly accept a variety of foods, including high-quality flake or pellet foods designed for tropical fish. Additionally, you can supplement their diet with live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, daphnia, and bloodworms. Providing a varied diet helps maintain their health and enhances their coloration.

Habitat Preference: Fancy Guppies are highly adaptable and can be found in various freshwater habitats, including rivers, streams, and ponds. In aquariums, they prefer well-planted tanks with plenty of hiding spots, such as live or artificial plants. They appreciate some floating plants to provide shade and cover.

Water pH Level: The ideal pH range for Fancy Guppies is between 6.8 and 7.8. They can tolerate a somewhat broader range, but it's best to maintain a stable pH level within this range.

Behavior: Fancy Guppies are active, peaceful fish with vibrant personalities. They are known for their lively swimming and playful behavior. These fish are curious and enjoy exploring their environment. They are generally peaceful and can coexist with other peaceful fish species.

Fancy Guppies are schooling fish, which means they thrive when kept in groups of at least five or more. They feel more secure and exhibit their natural behaviors when kept with their own kind. However, a pair of Fancy Guppies can also do well together in a properly sized tank. Just ensure that there is ample space and hiding spots to reduce aggression and territorial behavior.

Other Details:

• Fancy Guppies are livebearers, which means they give birth to live fry rather than laying eggs. They reproduce readily, so be prepared for an increase in population if you have both male and female guppies in the same tank.

• Regular water changes and good filtration are essential to maintain water quality for your Fancy Guppies. They are sensitive to poor water conditions.

• Pay attention to the male-to-female ratio to prevent excessive harassment of females by males. A higher number of females to males can help reduce stress on the females.

• It's important to quarantine new fish before introducing them to an existing guppy tank to prevent the spread of diseases.

Overall, Fancy Guppies are beautiful and engaging fish to keep in a well-maintained aquarium. Proper care and attention to their needs will help ensure they thrive and display their stunning colors and fin shapes, including the "Dumbo" red tails.
