Here’s some information about the Yellow King Cobra Guppy:
Origin: A selectively bred guppy (Poecilia reticulata) known for its striking cobra pattern.
Appearance: Males usually show a bright yellow body and tail with black snakeskin-like markings, resembling a cobra’s skin. Their tails may be round, delta, or fan-shaped depending on the strain. Females are larger, with lighter colors and less pattern.
Size: About 1.5 to 2.5 inches long.
Behavior: Peaceful, active swimmers, perfect for community aquariums.
Lifespan: Typically 2–3 years with proper care.
Breeding: They are livebearers and can reproduce rapidly. Fry need hiding spaces or separation to avoid being eaten.
Care: Thrive in clean, warm water (24–28°C / 75–82°F) and show their best colors when fed a varied diet of flakes, pellets, and live or frozen food.
✨ This guppy is loved by aquarists for its golden shine, cobra-like patterns, and hardy nature, making it a prized addition to freshwater tanks.
