Develop Your Own Colony with This Unique Mix of Endlers!
*Color and pattern may vary.*
The Endler’s Livebearer (Poecilia wingei) is an extremely colorful, peaceful fish whose small size makes it absolutely perfect for the nano or planted aquarium. Endlers on this listing vary in coloration, but they are all very high-quality!
Endlers typically occupy the top level of the water column, although they can often be seen swimming and feeding in the middle and bottom levels as well. They are also not afraid to jump, so they must be kept in an aquarium with either a lid/hood/canopy or at least a significantly lowered water level. They will not eat or bother plants. They are safe with other peaceful fish as long as the other fish are not aggressive.

Received a mix of Endlers with vibrant colors. They’re active and peaceful, and they don’t bother the plants. The only thing to note is they jump, so I added a lid to the tank. Great for a small setup.

The fish arrived healthy and showed great color variation. They’ve been in my nano tank for two weeks and are swimming nicely. I keep the tank covered to prevent jumping. Would recommend for beginners.

Beautiful fish with unique patterns. They coexist well with my dwarf corydoras. No issues with plant growth or aggression. Just make sure the tank has a lid.
