4 Enchanting Endlers

Endlers are stunning brightly colored fish that look very similar to Guppies. Both are livebearers, prolific breeders, and extremely colorful. They are relatively hardy and easy to care for.

Endlers are highly active and love to explore their surroundings. Their inquisitive nature and schooling behavior make them fun to observe. They look particularly impressive when swimming as a unit thanks to their vibrant colors.

Black Fire Endler

The Black Fire Endler boasts a mesmerizing coloration that sets it apart from other fish species. Its sleek body shimmers with a fiery orange tail and dorsal fin, creating a visual spectacle that will captivate both seasoned aquarists and hobbyists alike.

Campoma No. 7 Endler

Campoma No. 7 Endler

The Campoma No. 7 Endler has stunning pops of orange and yellow with contrasting black, similar to the N Class Endler. Each fish boasts a distinctive blend of colors, from shimmering metallics to bold contrasts. Campoma Endlers are often named after their strain, location, and the year they were collected.

Endler's Livebearer

Endler's Livebearer

Endler's Livebearer is one of the most popular freshwater aquarium fish due to its brilliant colors and peaceful nature. Males exhibit a kaleidoscope of green, blue, red, yellow, and black across their bodies and fins, while females are less flamboyant but still attractive with yellowish-green hues. Both reach only around one inch in length when mature, making them perfect for nano aquariums.

El Tigre Endler

El Tigre Endler

The El Tigre Endler is known for its neon yellow, green, and red-orange coloring with intricate patterns. Similar to a common guppy, this strain grows to just one or two inches, making it ideal for nano aquariums. Be mindful of mixed-sex groups, as they are prolific breeders!

Endler's Diet

We feed our Endlers a mix of frozen, live, and prepared foods including baby brine shrimp and black worms. We also supplement their diet with Northfin Veggie, Northfin Community, and Northfin Bug Pro.

Example of Female Endler

Example of Female Endler

Native to South America, Endlers prefer heavily planted aquariums with a sandy substrate and floating plants to provide hiding spots. They typically occupy the top level of the tank and enjoy open water, so provide enough space for activity. Endlers aren’t afraid to jump, so be sure to fit a tight lid. While males have the majority of the color, females are still attractive, making Endlers a great addition to any tank!
