About the Strain

Fancy Guppy Fry are sold young, before they can be sexed or sorted. Each pack holds a full dozen. Strain, color and sex vary with what we have ready.

Raising guppies from fry is a good way to start. You watch color develop and fins fill out as they grow. If you want a specific strain or sexed adults, see the strain pages on this site.

Tank Mates

Guppies are community fish. They do well with most other fish that won’t pick on them, which makes them an easy fit for a mixed tank.

Good matches are peaceful fish of similar size, such as small tetras, rasboras, corydoras, platies and mollies. Skip fin-nippers and large or aggressive fish.

As with any fish, anything small enough to fit in a mouth is food, so keep size in mind when choosing tank mates.
