Tank Setup
Red Moscow Guppies do best in a clean, established freshwater aquarium with stable water parameters, gentle to moderate filtration, and plenty of swimming space. They are well-suited for planted aquariums, peaceful community tanks, and guppy-focused displays.
Live plants, floating plants, and aquarium decor help provide cover, reduce stress, and give fry places to hide. A secure lid is recommended, as guppies may jump when startled.
Diet & Feeding
Red Moscow Guppies are easy to feed and enjoy a varied diet. Offer quality flakes, micro pellets, small granules, frozen foods, freeze-dried foods, and occasional vegetable-based foods. A varied diet helps support color, activity, and overall condition.
Feed small amounts once or twice daily, only offering what the fish can consume within a few minutes.
Compatible Tank Mates
Red Moscow Guppies are peaceful and do well with other calm community fish. Good tank mates include small tetras, rasboras, Corydoras, endlers, platies, mollies, peaceful snails, and shrimp in well-established aquariums.
Avoid aggressive fish, fin nippers, and large predatory tank mates that may stress or damage the guppies' flowing fins.
Livebearer Information
Guppies are livebearers, which means females give birth to live fry instead of laying eggs. When males and females are kept together, breeding can happen readily. Providing plants or breeding cover can help increase fry survival in the aquarium.
