My Japan blue guppies are over-running my tank so it is time to rehome some and make space! These are a beautiful wild strain of guppy that stay slightly smaller than most guppies. The males are a vivid neon blue in the light with some black or orange markings and may have a short tail, single swordtail, or double swordtail. Females are generally colorless but may have a slight blue shine (they look similar to female endlers). This is common in wild strains of guppy. My guppies are not inbred. They come from multiple lines for strong genetics. I "cull" (move to mutt guppy tank) any inferior guppies so that only the best stick around to reproduce. This strain of guppy rarely eats its own young so as long as you have some safe places for the fry (I use guppy grass plants) they will survive just fine without intervention. I keep mine with snails, plecos, and even dwarf shrimp without an issue.
