The Red Tail Silverado Endler’s Guppy is a stunning, tank-bred variety of Poecilia wingei that features a shimmering metallic silver body accented by deep black markings and a bold, fiery red tail. This colorful and compact livebearer is ideal for peaceful community tanks and nano setups, where its movement and vibrancy bring life and energy to the aquascape. Its hardy nature and active behavior make it a favorite for beginner and experienced hobbyists alike.

What We Love About This Fish:

• Brilliant coloration: Striking red tail, silver body, and bold black accents
• Small and lively: Perfect for nano and planted aquariums
• Peaceful temperament: Great with small fish and most invertebrates
• Easy to breed: Livebearer that reproduces readily in the right conditions

Natural Habitat:

Poecilia wingei originate from freshwater streams and lagoons in Venezuela, often found in clear, slow-moving waters dense with aquatic vegetation. These environments provide ample cover and biofilm for grazing.

Aquascaping:

• Plants: Java Moss, Hornwort, Rotala, Frogbit
• Hardscape: River rocks, smooth driftwood, small caves for hiding
• Botanicals: Indian Almond Leaves, Catappa Bark, Alder Cones, or our Botanical Combo pack which has a mixture of leave litter and other botanicals.

Diet and Feeding:

These guppies are omnivores and will thrive on a varied diet of:
• High-quality flake food and micro-pellets
• Live or frozen baby brine shrimp, daphnia, and microworms
• Blanched vegetables or spirulina-based foods for added nutrition

Tank Mates and Compatibility:

Red Tail Silverado Endlers do well with peaceful community fish like small tetras, rasboras, otocinclus, and Corydoras. They are also compatible with most adult freshwater shrimp, though small shrimp fry may be at risk without sufficient plant cover.

Shrimp Safe:

Generally safe with adult Neocaridina and Caridina shrimp, though they may eat newly hatched fry. Providing dense moss or hiding places will help reduce risk.

Breeding:

Like all Endlers and guppies, this variety is a livebearer. They reproduce readily when kept in stable water conditions with a good diet. Fry can be raised in the same tank if ample cover is provided.

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.
