Beskrivelse
Guppy fish are an incredibly popular freshwater fish in the aquarium scene. Low-maintenance and beginner friendly, there's a lot to like about this species!
This guide will teach you everything you need to know about guppy care. While they're not difficult to keep, you still need to understand their basic requirements if you want them to live long and happy lives! The guppy was first discovered during the 1860s in South America. Its natural distribution is vast. However, they're most prevalent in Brazil and Guyana. Some wild populations are found in Barbados, too.
Interestingly enough, you can find guppy fish in many places around the world. And it's not just irresponsible owners that released them into the wild that caused these growing populations.
The guppy fish is often used for mosquito control. Their propensity to consume mosquito larvae makes them a cheap and reliable option to reduce mosquito populations without chemical pesticides. Of course, introducing these fish to strange environments doesn't always end positively, and you should never attempt to release them into the wild on your own.
