Description:

The Full Platinum Albino Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a dazzling freshwater fish with a radiant golden body that contrasts beautifully with its red eyes. Its peaceful temperament and active swimming habits make it a delightful addition to any aquarium. This variety’s albino genetics not only enhance its unique appearance but also add an intriguing aspect to breeding projects for guppy enthusiasts.

Social by nature, Albino Golden Guppies thrive in groups, bringing activity and energy to the tank.

What We Like About This Fish:

• Brilliant Golden Body: Radiates a glowing, metallic golden hue that stands out in any aquarium.
• Unique Red Eyes: A distinctive feature of its albino genetics.
• Hardy and Adaptable: Thrives in various tank setups and water conditions.
• Ideal for Breeding: Perfect for hobbyists interested in exploring albino guppy genetics.

Aquascaping:

Full Platinum Albino Guppies flourish in aquariums with live plants and ample swimming space. Recommended plants include:

Java Moss: Provides hiding spots for fry and adds texture to the tank.
Hornwort: A versatile plant that grows quickly and offers excellent coverage.
Anubias and Amazon Swords: Enhance the guppy’s vibrant golden color.
Floating Plants (Duckweed, Frogbit): Create shade and mimic a natural habitat.

Not Shrimp Compatible:

Albino Golden Guppies are peaceful and can coexist with larger shrimp species. However, smaller shrimp or fry may be at risk of predation. Adding dense plants and hiding spots can help maintain harmony.

Full Platinum Albino Guppies are omnivorous and thrive on a varied diet:

Staple Foods: High-quality flake food or micro pellets.

Vegetables: Occasional blanched spinach or zucchini for added nutrition.

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.
