Purple Dragon Guppy (Poecilia reticulata)

The Purple Dragon Guppy is one of the most sought-after strains in the hobby — a rare blend of deep violet coloration and metallic dragon-scale iridescence that shimmers as the fish moves through the water. The full, flowing tail carries rich purple tones that intensify under proper aquarium lighting, making this strain a true centerpiece fish in any display tank.

Like all fancy guppies, Purple Dragons are hardy, peaceful, and active swimmers that adapt well to a wide range of water conditions. They thrive in planted aquariums of 10 gallons or more and get along well with other peaceful community fish like tetras, rasboras, corydoras, and shrimp. As livebearers, they're also prolific and easy to breed — a great choice for hobbyists interested in raising their own line or working toward show-quality color.

Purple is one of the hardest colors to develop and stabilize in guppy genetics, which makes this strain a standout for collectors looking to go beyond the usual reds, blues, and yellows. Whether you're building a dedicated guppy colony or adding a splash of rare color to a community tank, the Purple Dragon delivers.

It is rare for our fish to arrive DOA, 1 out of 50 could be due to conditions we can not control.

 

Acclimation

Most aquarium fish are hardy, but they still need slow acclimation to avoid stress and shock. When your fish arrives, float the bag for about 15–20 minutes to match temperature, then slowly add small amounts of tank water into the bag over 30–45 minutes. This helps them adjust to differences in pH, hardness, and temperature. Keep the lights off during acclimation and avoid feeding right away. In our experience, rushing acclimation is one of the easiest ways to lose an otherwise healthy fish—slow and calm always works better.
