Yellow Tux Guppy (Pair)

The yellow tux guppy, or yellow tuxedo guppy, features a black "tuxedo" body with a bright yellow tail. This variety is a bit harder to breed and is a standout in small community fish tanks. The yellow appears brighter due to the black of the body.

Quick Facts

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: Tuxedo guppies have a dark back half that looks like a tuxedo jacket.
