The longer answer

About the endler guppy

Endlers breed on sight. A mixed group turns into 200 fish inside a year, so we sell males only unless you are deliberately setting up a breeding tank and have somewhere for the offspring to go. They tolerate the harder tap water in this region better than almost anything else we stock.

If any of that changes your mind, that is the page doing its job. Nobody loses a deposit for deciding against an animal after reading about it.

What you will need

The kit we would send home with it

Not an upsell list. These are the items we put on the counter beside a endler guppy because leaving one of them out is usually what goes wrong in the first month. Supplies can be ordered online and delivered. The animal cannot.

Before you send the message

Three things that do not change, whatever the animal

  • We do not ship live animals

    No courier, no cargo hold, no airport collection. Every animal leaves in your hands from the counter on Al Muntasir Road. Supplies travel in our van across the northern emirates. Animals never do.

  • A person answers, not a form

    Your enquiry lands on the phone behind the counter and comes back with questions. Nothing is reserved by clicking a button, and no deposit is taken until we have both said yes.

  • We will decline if the setup is not right

    If the tank has not cycled or the housing is undersized, we will say so, tell you what would change it, and hold the animal while you sort it out. That is the reason there is no checkout on this page.
