Common Name: Luminous Mosaic Tiger Guppy
Scientific Name: Poecilia reticulata
Genus: Poecilia
Wild Origin: Selectively bred; wild ancestors originate from South America, particularly in rivers and streams in Venezuela, Guyana, and Trinidad.

Luminous Mosaic Tiger Guppy is a vibrant, selectively bred guppy variety known for its striking yellow and red coloration, reminiscent of a ripe pineapple. Males are especially eye-catching, with their vibrant yellow bodies, red accents, and long, flowing tails. Luminous Mosaic Tiger Guppies exhibit more subdued colors but maintain an elegant appearance. These guppies are popular for their hardy nature, peaceful temperament, and stunning coloration, making them a great addition to community or species-specific aquariums. Pineapple Guppies typically grow to about 1.5-2 inches (4-5 cm) and can live for 2-3 years with proper care.

Habitat and Tank Requirements:

Luminous Mosaic Tiger Guppy thrive in warm, clean water with ample plants and open swimming areas. Their vibrant colors are best displayed in well-lit tanks.

Tank Size and Water Parameters:

PARAMETER	RECOMMENDED
Tank Size	Minimum 40 litres
Temperature	72-82°F (22-28°C)
pH	6.8-7.8
Hardness	Moderately hard water, 8-12 dGH

Pineapple Guppies prefer a well-planted aquarium with live plants like Java moss, Anubias, or floating plants, which provide hiding spots and grazing surfaces. A soft substrate of fine gravel or sand enhances the tank’s aesthetics while being gentle on the fish. A gentle filter and regular water changes are recommended to maintain water quality.

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:

Luminous Mosaic Tiger Guppy are peaceful, social fish that enjoy being in groups. In mixed-sex groups, a ratio of 2-3 females per male is ideal to prevent stress from excessive mating behavior.

Their calm nature makes them ideal tank mates for other peaceful species, including small tetras, rasboras, Corydoras catfish, and shrimp. However, avoid housing them with fin-nipping species like tiger barbs, as their flowing fins can become a target.
