Remarks: A perfect starter fish! Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are peaceful community fish that reproduce with ease. They are livebearers, meaning the females release live fry rather than laying eggs. It is recommended to keep more females than males, as males can easily harass females with relentless attempts to reproduce, leading to stress in the females. 

  Males with the mosaic pattern usually have a tail pattern made up of spots and thin lines. The males' bodies from this line are usually black to blue with their fins being a vibrant red. Females may develop some color in the fins, but typically remain gray in the body.
