Green Moscow Guppy
The Green Moscow Guppy Male is a beautiful freshwater livebearer known for its metallic green to blue-green coloration, flowing fins, and active personality. These fancy guppies are a great choice for peaceful community aquariums, planted tanks, and beginner-friendly freshwater setups.
Male Green Moscow Guppies are especially popular because of their bold color, smaller size, and constant movement throughout the aquarium. They add color and activity without needing a large tank.

Tank Mates
Green Moscow Guppies do best with peaceful community fish that will not nip their fins. Good tank mates include small tetras, rasboras, corydoras, peaceful gouramis, platies, mollies, snails, and Neocaridina shrimp in well-planted tanks.
Avoid keeping fancy guppies with aggressive fish or known fin nippers such as tiger barbs, larger cichlids, or overly boisterous tank mates.

- Keep in clean, stable, well-filtered water.
- Provide live plants or décor for cover.
- Use gentle to moderate water flow.
- Keep males with other peaceful fish to prevent fin damage.
- Perform regular water changes to maintain good water quality.
