Super White Guppy

Pure, pristine, and elegantly striking — the Super White Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a premium fancy guppy strain selectively bred to display a near-uniform, brilliant white body and flowing white fins. Clean, minimalist, and luminous, the Super White Guppy is a sophisticated choice that stands out beautifully against dark substrates and lush green planted aquariums.

Overview

Appearance

The Super White Guppy displays a stunning, near-uniform white to platinum body with a bright white flowing tail and fins. Their clean, ghost-like appearance is both refined and eye-catching — especially when kept against a dark substrate or surrounded by vivid green plants. Under aquarium lighting, their white scales take on a subtle pearlescent shimmer that adds to their elegance.

Water Parameters & Tank Setup

• Temperature: 72 – 82°F (22 – 28°C)
• pH: 7.0 – 8.0
• General Hardness (GH): 8 – 20 dGH
• Tank Size: Minimum 10 gallons
• Lighting: Moderate — their white colouration glows beautifully under good lighting
• Substrate: Dark substrate creates a stunning contrast with their white body
• Plants & Decor: Planted tanks with floating plants for fry cover and open swimming space

Diet & Feeding

• Staple: High-quality flake food or micro pellets
• Treats: Baby brine shrimp, daphnia, micro worms, and blanched vegetables

Feed small amounts 2–3 times daily.

Compatibility & Tank Mates

• Other peaceful guppy strains and livebearers
• Small tetras and rasboras
• Corydoras catfish
• Dwarf shrimp (with caution)

Avoid fin-nipping species to protect their flowing white fins.

Breeding

Guppies are livebearers and breed readily. Females give birth to live fry every 4–6 weeks. Provide floating plants or a breeding box to protect fry. Fry can be fed crushed flake food or baby brine shrimp from birth.

The Super White Guppy is a study in elegant simplicity — pure, luminous, and effortlessly beautiful. A perfect choice for aquarists who appreciate clean, refined aesthetics in their aquarium.
