Fun Fact: Guppy Grass gets its name because it provides excellent cover for baby fish, especially livebearers like guppies, protecting them from being eaten by adults.
Appearance: Guppy Grass has thin, branching stems with delicate, feathery green leaves. It grows quickly and can form dense mats, making it ideal for breeding and shrimp tanks.
Habitat: Native to North and Central America, Guppy Grass thrives in a variety of freshwater environments, including ponds, lakes, and slow-moving streams.
Aquarium Use: This plant is popular in breeding tanks, shrimp tanks, and low-maintenance setups. It provides shelter for fry and small aquatic creatures, reduces algae growth by outcompeting it for nutrients, and oxygenates the water.
Care: Guppy Grass is one of the easiest aquarium plants to grow. It adapts well to different water conditions, requires no special substrate, and grows rapidly under various lighting levels. It can be left floating or anchored in the substrate.
Propagation: Guppy Grass propagates easily through stem cuttings. Simply trim a section and let it float or plant it in the substrate, and it will quickly develop new roots and stems.
Note: Due to its fast growth, regular trimming may be needed to prevent it from overtaking the aquarium. Some fishkeepers use it as a natural nitrate absorber, helping maintain water quality.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
