What Mosaic Guppy look like

Mosaic Guppies are domestic guppies selected for broken multicolor patching, especially on the caudal fin. The body remains slim and livebearer-like.

Behavior & temperament

Peaceful community livebearer. Keep in planted hard-water tanks with calm tank mates. Dense cover protects fry in mixed-sex groups.

Diet & feeding

Mosaic Guppies are omnivores that accept fine flakes, micro pellets, daphnia, baby brine shrimp, mosquito larvae, bloodworms, and vegetable-based foods.

Behind the name

Mosaic refers to the broken tile-like color patches on the tail.

Plan your tank

Check the numbers before you buy: tank volume, a stocking plan, cycle progress, water changes, and your ongoing care routine.
