Dumbo Ear Guppy - Male

The color variation of the dumbo ear guppy from Sri Lanka is a cross between the dragon and red cobra guppy. Large front ventral fins are what give this fish its name - like Dumbo the Elephant these fins make this fancy guppy look like it could fly!

Please be advised, colors may vary. This week, for instance, we have higher end golden dumbo ear!

Quick Facts

Care Guide

Tank setup: Give them a heater, a gentle filter and plenty of plants. Guppies like slightly hard water.

Feeding: Feed a quality flake or small pellet once or twice a day, only as much as they eat in a couple of minutes. They also enjoy frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp.

Tankmates: Male guppies get along with other small, peaceful fish such as platies, mollies, corydoras, small tetras and rasboras. Avoid fin-nippers like tiger barbs, which go after their long tails, and larger fish that could eat them.

Good to know: Dumbo ear guppies are named for their oversized, ear-like pectoral fins.
