Our Black Moscow Guppy males are the loveliest. Hardy, with a pitch black body and black fins. The Black Moscows have delta tail shape tails. They grow to about 5cm and are a great in any peaceful community tank.
While guppies are incredibly social, we recommend keeping them in a group of at least 6 males to create a stunning, high-contrast display. They are active and playful, constantly exploring the mid-to-upper layers of the tank. They are quite hardy but prefer water on the slightly harder side, thriving in a pH range of 7.0–8.5. Because of their long, delicate fins, they should be kept in tanks with a gentle flow and without any other species that are known fin nippers.
They are enthusiastic eaters and not at all picky, for the best health and deepest black coloration, feed them a variety of flakes, micro-pellets, and frozen treats like brine shrimp. Please note these guppies are imported so the genetic history is unknown.
Black Moscow Guppy Males available only. No females.
