Albino White Guppy

Description

The Albino White Guppy is a clean, pale strain with an almost translucent white-cream body, red-toned albino eyes, and a bold black band wrapped around the throat just behind the gills. The tail and dorsal fin are broad and lightly translucent, sometimes carrying a faint white or cream tint that catches the light as the fish swims.

Because the body carries so little dark pigment, the black throat collar stands out sharply and is the easiest way to spot this strain at a glance. The red-pink eyes typical of albino guppies add a soft contrast against the pale body, and mature males often show a subtle rosy blush near the head under good lighting.

Every Albino White Guppy from Classic Guppy is home-bred in Pune, never wild-caught, and raised on live baby brine shrimp for clean colour and strong fins. Orders ship in insulated, heat-packed boxes with a live arrival guarantee, and you can choose a single pair, a trio, or a proven breeding pair.

Keep the Albino White Guppy in a well-cycled aquarium of at least 10 gallons with a heater set between 24-27°C and gentle filtration. Because albino strains lack dark eye pigment, moderate lighting without harsh direct glare helps them settle in and show their best colour against a darker substrate.

A varied diet of high-quality flake, live or frozen baby brine shrimp, and occasional Larviva Mysis keeps the white body looking clean and bright while supporting steady breeding. Avoid overly bright tanks, as albino guppies can be more sensitive to intense light than normal-eyed strains.

Tip: Guppies are shoaling fish and settle in best with company – a trio or a proven breeding pair is a great starting point for a lively, well-settled shoal.
