The Sunset Male Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a dazzling livebearer that lives up to its name — its flowing tail blazes with warm amber, orange, and gold tones that shimmer like a tropical sunset. Hardy, active, and endlessly entertaining, guppies are one of the most popular freshwater fish in the hobby and make a stunning centrepiece in any community or species tank.
