Santa Claus Guppy - Male

Santa Claus Guppies come with Christmas reds and Santa Claus beard whites on the body. To make the picture complete, the fins, even the dumbo ear ventral fins, are large and colorful. Unlike the gift-giving Santa Claus, these fish will stay with you through all four seasons. Breeders do not like to part with females. If you want to try to breed these yourselves, you might try crossing with pink flamingo, blond tux, or red delta females.

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: Male guppies are the colorful ones and get along well with each other in an all-male tank.
