Sunflower Guppy

Poecilia Reticulata - sunflower guppies

This is a  beautiful  GLA Original line from 2019.

The name “Sunflower” fits this guppy perfectly!

While the strikingly bright yellow and orange colors of the sires remind us of it’s bright and sunny petals. It is beautiful to see a light shining behind them, because it makes their fins and tail look just like a ray of sunshine. Now match this with their iridescent emerald heads and matching pelvic fins, gorgeous.   You can notice in the photos these fish will show brightly gold from one angle and then a brilliant white from another. 

 Males mature to 2 inches and feature elegant orange delta tails and extended dorsal fins, which transition to a brilliant yellow at their base.

 Females mature to 2.5 inches and have silver bodies that fade to black at the base of their tails. A few females are now showing yellow in their tails and dorsal as well as an iridescent stripe on their sides.  This is something we are breeding for but have not yet achieved 100% so your females may vary.

Absolutely stunning, these peaceful fish are perfect for the centerpiece of your aquascape.

Juveniles now, these fish will mature and grow out in color and size after you have received them. Our pictures represent both your Sire, Dame and males of different ages to show how they may mature over time.

Your fish are line breed and raised with extreme care right here at Good Life Aquatics. They live in pure PNW well water with a PH of 7.4, TDS 250. Their diet consists of high quality specialty fish food from Ark BioRite, and occasional baby brine shrimp. 

All young are birthed into their own aquarium and raised there for two months or until sexing. We do not use breeder cages or continuously use nets to move our fish to other tanks. All of our tanks have sand bottoms, matten filters, and are home to live plants. This includes our thriving Pistia stratiotes (water lettuce), where, among its large roots, the dames birth healthy fry.

Good Life Aquatics prides itself on the health and welfare of your fish. If you have any questions or concerns, please message us!
