4 Enchanting Endlers

Endlers are stunning brightly colored fish that look very similar to Guppies. The two are often confused with one another. Just like Guppies, they are livebearers that are prolific breeds 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 active lifestyle make them fun to observe. Their best kept with groups as naturally schooling fish and 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

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


ENDLER'S LIVEBEARER

Endler's Livebearers are among the most popular freshwater aquarium fish due to their brilliant colors and peaceful community nature. Males exhibit a kaleidoscope of colors including green, blue, red, yellow, and black in various patterns across their bodies and flowing fins. Females are less flamboyant but still attractive with yellowish-green coloration. Both sexes only reach around 1 inch in length when mature, making them perfect for nano aquariums.

 

EL TIGRE ENDLER

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

Endler's Diet

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

 

 Example of Female Endler

Native to South America, Endlers prefer heavily planted aquariums with a sandy substrate filled with lush flora and floating plants to provide comfortable hiding spots. Endlers typically occupy the top level of the tank but enjoy swimming in the open water, so provide enough space for activity. Endlers aren’t afraid to jump, so be sure to fit a tight lid if they decide to escape. Also similar to guppies, the males often have the majority of the color and the females are less colorful, either way, though Endlers have great personalities and colors making them a great addition to any tank!
