Endler’s Livebearer is a small, colorful freshwater fish known for its vibrant patterns and hardy nature. It is closely related to the common guppy (Poecilia reticulata) but is smaller in size and features more intense, metallic coloration. Males display bright, iridescent colors, often in combinations of orange, green, blue, and black, while females are larger and more subdued in appearance. Due to their peaceful temperament and striking appearance, Endler’s Livebearers are a popular choice for nano aquariums and species-specific tanks. These fish typically grow to about 1-1.5 inches (2.5-3.8 cm) and can live for 2-3 years in captivity with proper care.


Habitat and Tank Requirements:

Endler’s Livebearers thrive in warm, clean water and are best suited to planted aquariums with plenty of swimming space and areas for hiding.

Tank Size and Water Parameters:

PARAMETER RECOMMENDED
Tank Size Minimum 20 litres
Temperature 72-82°F (22-28°C)
pH 6.5-8.0
Hardness Moderately hard water, 10-20 dGH

A well-planted tank with live plants such as Java moss, Anubias, or floating plants provides shelter and encourages natural behavior. A soft substrate, such as sand or fine gravel, is ideal, and low to moderate water flow is recommended. Regular water changes are essential to maintain water quality, as Endler’s Livebearers are sensitive to sudden changes in their environment.

We Recommend:

These carefully selected options provide a well-balanced nutritional profile, ensuring that your fish receive the essential nutrients they need for optimal growth, vibrant colors, and overall health. By offering a variety of these high-quality foods, you can help maintain the vitality and well-being of your fish, promoting a healthy and thriving aquarium environment.

Behavior and Compatibility:

Endler’s Livebearers are peaceful, active schooling fish that thrive in groups. A ratio of more females to males is recommended in mixed-sex groups to prevent stress caused by constant male courtship behavior.

They are ideal tank mates for other small, non-aggressive fish such as small tetras, rasboras, Corydoras catfish, and dwarf shrimp. Avoid housing them with larger or aggressive species, as their small size makes them vulnerable to predation or bullying.
