As
all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs.
Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to
state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale
no longer work as 02/22/10.
We are changing our tropical fish
suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back,
because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,
15 years of selling tropical fish online and
safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any
complaints!!!

General Comment:
All around a great starter fish and their are those who continue their interest
into the genetics and breeding of exotic strains as a specialty in their hobby.
1 tbs. of aquarium salt per 5 gallons of water is highly recommended for
guppies, as with all tropical freshwater fish.
