I've been thinking about getting some guppies for a while and yesterday there was a 'buy 1 get 1 free' sale at an lfs, so how could I not buy something??
I got these two *tiny* little guys. They're in QT now but doing great. I love having guppies in my tank, they really brighten things up!

Looks good, nice fish!!

nice.. i never have luck with them..

What do you mean, Fishcrazy? I thought they were supposed to be hardy.....?

Get some females too please!

I'm thinking about it eventually, but not yet. There's no room at the inn....I mean in the tank

They only need like...2.5 gallons of water...

Eh, whatever suits you.

I meant for the fry, not the female

Your gups are great!

At first I didn't want any for myself cause everybody has them seems like but now I'm in love with the little guys. They are just sooo active and playful! Besides all the millions of colors.

Cute little guppies! I have some guppies and adore the little guys! They're very active, always swimming about. I like to call them my hyper little fish ("hyper" compared to all my other fish)

how big do they grow?

The males grow to about 1-1/2" - 2" (half of that is tail) and the females are larger, 2 - 2-1/2".

I actually just picked up 2 more, they're beautiful leopard tail types. They are actually pretty amusing fish, probably my favorites next to goldies. They seem to develop real little personalities.
