Guppies are basically the peacocks of the fish world, saying their tails are flashy is an understatement. There are dozens of different types to choose from, all with their own unique tails and colors that range through the whole spectrum of the rainbow, and by the way that is why guppies are also called rainbow fish. Another nickname guppies have is million fish, they are called that because of how fast they can breed and reproduce. If you buy a pair of them then you’ll have a whole guppy community in no time at all.

Guppy 2 (middle-left): well our owner just gets a mer-maid to clean for us.

The males have bigger and more colorful tails than the females, and you will frequently see the males chasing the females all around the tank.

Sadly guppies don’t have a long lifespan, they typically live for around two years. But that doesn’t mean you’ll run out of them any time soon. Because female guppies can produce thirty to forty fry every month.
