An active fish, guppies use an enormous amount of energy and need to be fed at least 3 times a day, with a variety of foods including dry, fresh, frozen or live foods. Guppies are top feeders and will readily take most prepared foods.
Compatibility
Guppies are suited to a densely planted community tank with other peaceful fish. It is best to choose tank mates with similar water requirements slightly alkaline hard water in their aquarium. Avoid stocking with larger or aggressive species which will nip at them because of their brightly coloured tails. Male guppies may continuously harass female guppies if kept together, a ratio of one male to two females will reduce stress.
