Recently countries such as Germany, Italy and the USA have taken the lead in the hobby of Fancy Guppy
breeding.The purpose of this site is to encourage the breeding of Guppies here in the UK.

It is often a problem to obtain good foundation stock in the this country but I hope that sites such as this and British Livebearer  Viviparous  sites (see links page) will help increase the stock available and so maintain and increase the gene pool. Thanks mainly to Malcolm Clarke many strains
have recently been imported from Europe.

Guppies are often said to be "easy, hardy " fish, but cultivated Fancy Guppies do need good husbandry to thrive.The production of a  good line bred fish is a true challenge, one which I  am still striving to meet. I am told Discus are easy by comparison ! See interesting the article based on a lecture Derek Jordan gave at a B.L.A. Convention, this is this first time I have seen published photographs showing the week by week growth of the Guppy, only wish my fish grew so well !.
