Grass guppies are a popular, hardy, and peaceful fancy strain known for their distinctive, intricate dotted or fine-line patterns resembling blades of grass on their caudal and dorsal fins. Key varieties include Blue Grass (featuring the "Asian blow mutation), Red Grass and Pink Grass, usually thriving in 72–82°F water

Key Types of Grass Guppies
  • Blue Grass Guppy: The most popular variety, characterized by a deep, metallic blue color on the tail and dorsal fin, often with a "dark blue swoosh" on the body.
  • Red Grass Guppy: Known as the base or wild-type strain, these feature a reddish, dotted pattern on the fins and are often produced as siblings in Blue Grass batches.
  • Pink Grass Guppy: Features a vibrant pink or purple body with orange or, pink, and red spotted patterns on the tail.
  • Asian Blow Grass: A specific strain with a dull, gray-blue appearance, often forming 10–20% of offspring in a blue grass brood.
  • Metal Snakeskin Blue Grass: A hybrid variation that adds a snakeskin pattern to the traditional blue grass look.

You are bidding on 6 fry. Some of my pink grass parents have some orange coloring as seen in the photos. I am guessing each of the 6 fry you receive will have a different shades of the pink and orange
