Fish Tanks & Accessories

While there are many types of tropical fish, the Guppy fish is one of the least expensive and most durable types. Guppy fish are unique due to their breeding capabilities.

They are extremely prolific and deliver live young. Found in the wild and in most parts of the world, the Guppy fish is the ideal choice for beginning aquarium owners. They are easy to maintain and care for and are non-aggressive.

If you've been researching fish tanks and tropical fish, you may already know the Guppy fish is likely the most popular tropical fish.

There is a huge variety available in Guppy fish including the likes of the Bottom and Double swordtail guppy, Fancy guppy, Fantail guppy, Lacetail guppy, Long fin guppy, Snakeskin guppy, the Veiltail guppy and varieties or Tetras.

When a novice aquarium owner combines several types of tropical fish in the Guppy family together, the tank can look beautiful with a mixture of colors. However, it can be best to keep guppies together in a separate tank because other more aggressive fish can abuse their beautiful long tails.

To take care of Guppy fish, owners should feed them once or twice a day. Guppies, like other tropical fish, subsist on flaked fish food created for their dietary needs. It's vital not to over-feed Guppies. Most often if your fish stop eating quickly or aren't eating the food after the first few minutes of it being in the tank, they are being fed too much at each feeding.

There are many kinds of Tetris fish, including one called the Paracheirodon Axelrodi. These fish are commonly known as Cardinal Tetras. This breed of fish will mature to a length of an inch and is indigenous to the Upper Rio Negro, Colombia, and Brazil.

This fish is similar to the Neon Tetra in color but it generally has a broader array of colors. Unlike Neon fish, the Cardinals have red colors on the cover of their gill. The fish feed and expect water conditions same as the Neon fish.
