The Guppy Snow White is a breeding selection of the famous Poecilia reticulata, appreciated for its **all-white coat with pearly highlights** and wispy fins. Popular with beginners and experienced aquarists alike, it adds a touch of light and elegance to any community aquarium.

Behaviour & maintenance

The Guppy Snow White is :

• Lively, sociable and peaceful
• Best kept in small groups, ideally 1 male for 2-3 females
• Can cohabit with other small, peaceful fish

Feeding

Omnivorous:

• Flakes or granules for tropical fish
• Supplements: artemia, daphnia, micro worms
• Spirulina and poached vegetables (courgette, spinach) for vitality

Water quality

• pH: 6.8 - 7.8

Guppies appreciate water that is slightly hard, well oxygenated and stable. The addition of salt is not necessary but can be beneficial in very small doses.

• Fine sand or neutral gravel
• Floating plants and refuges for females and fry
• Avoid excessively strong currents that strain the fins

Aquabota tip

To preserve the Snow White's pearly whiteness, avoid very light backgrounds, which soften the visual effect. Combine it with other pastel guppies or calm species (neons, corydoras, etc.) for a harmonious effect.
