User Information)
Scientific Name: Lebistes
reticulatus also Poecilia reticulatus
Native Region: Central America, Mexico, Venezuela,
Caribbean area.
Temperament: Community. Peaceful. Excellent for
community tanks, for children or others who are starting their first aquarium. Great
way to explain the "birds & the bees".
Feeding: Will do well with standard flake food, but
some live foods, live & adult brine shrimp and bloodworms will enhance color, size and
reproduction.
Sexing:
Males are far
more colorful and have longer fins. They also have the modified anal fin typical of
livebearers. Females are usually much larger and are a drab olive/silver.
General Comment:
All around a great starter fish
and their are those who continue their interest into the genetics and breeding
of exotic strains as a specialty in their hobby. 1 tbs. of aquarium salt
per 5 gallons of water is highly recommended for guppies, as with all tropical
freshwater fish.
