Add a surprise pop of color to your aquarium with our Mystery Male Guppy. Each fish is hand-selected for strong color, active swimming, and overall health—but the exact color and pattern is a surprise. That’s the fun part. All Mystery males are pure blood strains from our listings
These are male guppies only, known for their bright tails and nonstop energy. You may receive reds, blues, yellows, mosaics, or mixed patterns.
Temperament: Peaceful
Minimum Tank Size: 10 Gallons
Water Temperature: 70-82 °F
Water pH: 6.5-8.2
Social Group: Solitary, Harem, or Breeding Colony. It is best to keep 2-3 females for every male guppy to prevent consistent male-to-female courtship and harassment.
Diet: Omnivorous; Commercial Diets, Frozen Bloodworms/Brine Shrimp/Daphnia, Live Baby Brine Shrimp/Daphnia
Compatible with: Catfish (Corydoradinae), Bristlenose Plecos, Harlequin Rasboras, Neon Tetras, other peaceful community fish. Avoid keeping with fin nipping, and semi-aggressive fish.
Prepare the Tank:
Make sure the new tank is set up with proper filtration and has been cycled to establish beneficial bacteria.
Check that the water temperature, pH, and other water parameters match those of the water the guppies are coming from.
Float the Bag:
Place the sealed bag containing the guppies in the new tank. Let it float for about 15-20 minutes to equalize the temperature between the bag water and the tank water.
Add Tank Water to the Bag:
Open the bag and roll down the top edges to create an air pocket so it can float. Every 5 minutes, add a small amount of tank water to the bag (about 1/4 cup). Do this for about 30 minutes. This helps the guppies gradually get used to the water chemistry in the new tank.
Release the Fish:
