Guppy 孔雀鱼
The Guppy is one of the most well-known and popular aquarium fish for both beginners and seasoned aquarists alike.
They add plenty of color to tanks, are peaceful, relatively cheap and very easy to maintain.
Guppies are peaceful fish that like to be kept in groups. They’re active swimmers and pretty much move around all the time.You’ll often see the males chasing the females trying to impress them by wiggling their fins.If your fish are constantly hiding, it could be an indication that they are stressed or ill.
Guppies come in almost every color imaginable, which is where they get the nickname ‘Rainbow Fish’ from.They are normally a paler color on the top and upper half of the body, and the rear part is usually a brighter, more vivid color.
Some varieties can also look metallic. They have iridophores which are cells that don’t have color, and reflect light which creates an iridescent effect.
