The Pingu Guppy is one of the most striking guppy varieties and it is an excellent fish for the nano or planted aquarium!

The Pingu Guppy (Poecilia reticulata var. “Pingu”) is a recently developed guppy variety, and it is exceptional in its coloration. In males, the head and pelvic area are bright blue, the rest of the body is white or pink, and the tail is bright yellow! We are pleased to now offer male/female pairs of this fish so that you can start your own colony if you wish. Females of this variety are extremely rare and can often command a hefty price.

Guppies typically occupy the top level of the water column, although they can often be seen swimming and feeding in the middle and bottom levels as well. They are also not afraid to jump, so they must be kept in an aquarium with either a lid/hood/canopy or at least a significantly lowered water level. They will not eat or bother plants. They are safe with other peaceful fish as long as the other fish are not known to nip at the long tail of the guppy. Adult dwarf shrimp are generally safe as well, but guppies may eat shrimp fry. Larger, peaceful invertebrates can also make good tankmates. Guppies are best kept in groups.

While not a picky eater, the Pingu Guppy will thrive and remain very colorful on a varied diet of meaty foods and some vegetable matter. High-quality flake food, pellets, and frozen or freeze-dried foods will all be readily accepted.

For the safety of our animals, we only ship live fish, crabs, and select other inverts exclusively via UPS 1 Day Air. If your order contains this item, you will only see UPS 1 Day Air as a shipping option during checkout. If other items are in your cart that can ship with 2 day or standard shipping options the only shipping method you can still select is UPS 1 Day Air.

Shipping Schedule for this service

UPS 1 Day: Monday through Thursday

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.
