Guppies are best known of all tropical and aquarium fish. Rev. Thomas Guppy identified the fish on the Caribbean island of Trinidad and named after his own name. Today, thousands of varieties of guppies are available for fish-keepers and aquarists around the world. Guppies available today have wide range of colors with many different body patterns and fin types.
They are calm, social and love to live in schools of a single species tank but can be kept with non-aggressive fish as well. They are small usually 1 to 2.5 inches in body length. Adult male guppy fish is smaller in size than the female ones. They breed constantly and for this reason males and females are preferred to be kept inside different tanks.
When it comes to guppies, males are preferred for their vibrant colors and fin types over the female ones. Keeping guppies is always a delightful experience you don’t want to miss.
The best thing about guppies is that they are small and easy to care fish. You can keep them in a basic 3 or 5 gallon tank as well.
