The Pink Comet Swordtail, scientifically known as Xiphophorus helleri, is a vibrant addition to any freshwater aquarium. Commonly known as the Swordtail Fish, this species boasts striking features, including its elongated caudal fin resembling a sword, which adds a captivating elegance to your aquatic display. Their peaceful demeanor makes them ideal companions for a variety of tank mates, fostering a harmonious aquatic environment.
In addition to their stunning appearance, Xiphophorus helleri are also renowned for their ease of care, making them an excellent choice for both seasoned aquarists and beginners. These adaptable fish thrive in a range of water conditions and are relatively undemanding in terms of diet, readily accepting high-quality flakes, pellets, and occasional treats like frozen or live foods. With proper maintenance and a well-equipped tank, Swordtail Fish can live for several years, providing endless enjoyment as they gracefully glide through their aquatic habitat.
Swordtails prefer and omnivores diet. We feed a mix of live foods including live baby brine shrimp, blackworms, bloodworms, and Daphnia. We supplement their diet with Northfin Veggie, Community, and Bug Pro to ensure a balanced and nutritious diet.
The beautiful pink shade of the swordtail contrasts great with the darker shade of my platies.
I just purchased a number of fish from Flip. They sent a note and one of my selections didn't look good so they contacted me and said they would prefer to issue credit. I got my shipment and 2 fish were dead - I sent them a picture and they sent out 4. I own my own business and this is the way we treat our customers. I appreciate this type of service. Rick
