Description
The Black Moscow Guppy is a striking freshwater livebearer known for its deep, dark coloration and flowing fins. This hardy and peaceful fish is a popular choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists looking to add elegance and movement to a community tank.
Black Moscow Guppies are characterized by their jet-black bodies. Females are larger with rounder bodies.
These guppies are prolific breeders. Females give birth to live fry every 4 to 6 weeks, so be prepared for population growth. They can live 2 to 3 years with proper care.
Size: Grow up to 4 to 6 cm in length. We sell 3-4 cm young but adult females.
Care Requirements:

- Water Temperature: Tropical conditions between 22°C and 28°C (72°F–82°F).
