The Blue Moscow Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a popular live-bearing freshwater fish, admired for its vibrant iridescent blue colouration. Males feature elaborate caudal and dorsal fins. These peaceful omnivores are well-suited for community aquariums and thrive in well-maintained, planted tanks with stable water parameters.
Relatively easy to care for, Blue Moscow Guppies are an excellent choice for beginner to intermediate aquarists. They appreciate a varied diet of high-quality flake food, pellets, and occasional live or frozen treats. Maintain a ratio of at least two females per male to promote harmonious group dynamics.
