Guppies are one of the most popular and adaptable freshwater fish species, cherished for their vibrant colors, active nature, and ease of care. Here are essential care requirements for keeping guppies in your aquarium:

• Tank Size: Minimum 10 gallons for a small group, with more space beneficial for larger groups.
• Temperature: Maintain water temperature between 72-82°F (22-28°C) for optimal health.
• Diet: Feed a varied diet including high-quality flakes, pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods to promote health and coloration.
• Tank Setup: Provide plants and decorations for hiding spots and to mimic their natural habitat.
• Water Quality: Regular water changes (20-30% weekly) and good filtration to keep ammonia and nitrite levels low.

Guppies are livebearers, meaning they give birth to live young rather than laying eggs. With proper care, they can live 1-3 years, making them a delightful addition to any community aquarium due to their peaceful demeanor and lively presence.
