The Pink Flamingo Guppy male is primarily red with pink highlights, a very pretty guppy. Females will produce a mix of offspring with red to true pink flamingo colors.

Guppies look great against plants, and plants will offer protection for the fry, so we suggest a small cluster of natural or faux ludwigia or similar plant.

Care Guide

Tank setup: Give them a heater, a gentle filter and plenty of plants, including some floating plants where babies can hide. 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: Guppies get along with other small, peaceful fish such as platies, mollies, corydoras, small tetras and rasboras. Avoid fin-nippers like tiger barbs and larger fish that could eat them.

Breeding: Guppies are livebearers and breed easily. Females give birth to live babies about once a month, and adults will eat the babies, so thick plants give them a place to hide.

Good to know: Pink flamingo guppies show soft pink tones that stand out in a planted tank.
