Guppies and endlers do well in a wide variety of setups. Anything from a bare tank with an established filter to a fully aquascaped, planted aquarium works for them. As long as the aquarium is mature enough that water parameters will be stable and ammonia/nitrites/nitrates won’t be an issue, they should do well. We keep our guppies at 79 degrees F, but they can be kept anywhere from the mid-70s to the low 80s. They are easiest to keep in hard, alkaline water, which makes them perfect for most fish keepers in the USA.
Guppies are omnivores, but the majority of their diet is plant matter. A 2003 study from the University of Lagos showed that algae made up 79% of their diet. They also eat mosquito larva and other animal protein, but only a small amount. Guppies are not picky and will eat a wide variety of foods, but be sure to rotate spirulina flakes, algae wafers, and other veggie sources into their diet. These fish are omnivores, but their natural diet contains a significant amount of plant matter. They also eat animal protein in nature, but only a small amount. Livebearers are not picky and will eat a wide variety of foods, but be sure to rotate spirulina flakes, algae wafers, and other veggie sources into their diet.
