Blue Moscow Guppy Information
The Blue Moscow Guppy (poecilia reticulata var blue moscow) is one of the most beautiful and easy to keep fish of all times.

A great tropical fish for freshwater aquarium fish beginners, the Blue Moscow Guppy is a very hardy tropical fish that is also a very prolific breeder. The male Blue Moscow Guppy is easy to distinguish from the female Blue Moscow Guppy because the male is usually more colorful with extremely colorful and large caudal fins (tails). The female is usually larger, thicker bodied, with less color and a smaller cuadal fin (tail).

Blue Moscow Guppy Breeding
They are livebearers which means that the babies are free swimming at birth. At each birth, the female Blue Moscow Guppy can have anywhere between 4 and 60 or more babies. If left in a community tank, the Blue Moscow Guppy fry will be quickly eaten if not secured in a breeding net or breeder's box. Sadly, even the guppy parents will partake in the baby guppy feast.

Please be responsible and have a plan for what to do with the Blue Moscow Guppy fry. If you're not interested in breeding them they should do just fine when kept as all males or all females. Mix the sexes and you will most likely have babies. If knowing that the larger fish in the tank are having a feast (as they would in the wild) on the baby guppies bothers you then only keep all males or all females. You may sometimes see some aggression amongst the males but nothing too out of hand.

Also, keep in mind that female guppies can be pregnant when you buy them from the store. Look for the gravid spot by the anal vent or a bulging in the belly area.

Blue Moscow Guppy Tank Requirements
The Blue Moscow Guppy requires an aquarium of at least 10 gallons in size. It is a very peaceful fish and should be housed with tankmates of similar temperament. Though the Blue Moscow Guppy is a hardy fish tolerant of small changes in water parameters, care should be taken to keep water temperature, pH, and nutrient levels in check. This hardy and energetic fish makes an excellent fish for beginning hobbyists.

Blue Moscow Guppies are relatively easy to breed even for the beginning aquarists. If you are interested in breeding guppies, the ideal aquarium should have a covering of floating plants and a breeding box to protect the fry. Adults may eat the fry if left to fend for themselves without the breeding box. The fry should be fed brine shrimp, micro food, and pulverized flakes.

Blue Moscow Guppy Food
The Blue Moscow Guppy is an omnivore and requires both algae-based foods as well as meaty foods. An algae-based flake food, along with freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex, and brine shrimp will provide guppies with the proper nutrition.
