Sunray Guppies (also known by the name Tequila Sunrise Guppies) are a rare and fairly new addition to the wide variety of guppies available. Their coloration is absolutely breathtaking, making these guppies the star of the show in any aquarium in which they are placed. The head is usually a bright, canary yellow, which tapers off and becomes an iridescent peacock blue. The tail and fins provide a beautiful contrast with a burst of sunset orange, accentuated by dark markings.
These are young adult males and totally non-aggressive, making them an excellent choice for community tanks. Their small size makes them safe with all fish and even small invertebrates (such as dwarf shrimp) that most fish will eat. They are also easy to care for; no special equipment is needed for these exotic-looking fish!
* PLEASE NOTE: We unfortunately cannot accept requests for female guppies, as we only have male guppies available at this time. *

Shipping Schedule for this service
Current Handling Time:
1-9 business days
Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.
Shipping Rate
Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
