Description

Purple queen guppies are a selectively bred colour variant of the guppy, a fish native to Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Trinidad and Tobago and nearby islands. Growing up to 6cm in length, these peaceful freshwater fish are adored for their rich purple colouration.

At Wirral Aquatics we feed our guppies Artemia, Insect meal and Seafood. They also enjoy live foods such as daphnia and baby brine shrimp.

Every aquarium is different. These are a guide based on water chemistry, adult size and temperament. Individual fish have their own personalities. Introduce new tank mates gradually, keep groups at the right numbers, and watch how everyone settles in. Ask our team if you'd like advice for your setup.

Ordering livestock

We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.

If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.

If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
