Singa Blue Guppy

Description

Our Singa Blue Guppies are a highly sought-after variety, prized for their stunning iridescent blue colouration that reflects and shimmers under different lighting conditions. Males mature into graceful specimens with medium-length flowing fins and tails, giving them an elegant and refined look in the aquarium. Females are larger and more robust, providing balance to the males’ vibrant display. Bred from premium imported genetics, this strain is a showpiece for aquarists looking to add brilliance to their tanks.

Age and Longevity

All Singa Blue Guppies are shipped between 3 to 5 months of age, often before reaching full maturity. This ensures the best possible longevity in your aquarium. With proper care, guppies live between 1 to 3 years.

Enhancing Colour and Appearance

To achieve the most vibrant guppy colours, we recommend:

• Feeding a varied diet, including live foods such as brine shrimp, daphnia, and mosquito larvae, which promotes deeper pigmentation.

• Housing guppies in dark-coloured tanks, where the contrast enhances their natural colours.

• Experimenting with different aquarium lighting spectrums to highlight unique traits and produce visually striking results.
