🐟 Endler’s Livebearer Care Guide (Poecilia wingei)

 

Endler’s Livebearers — compact, beginner-friendly, and great for small tanks.

 

Endler’s Livebearers are closely related to guppies but stay smaller and often show intense neon coloration. They’re peaceful, hardy, and ideal for nano tanks, community setups, or breeding projects.

🏠 Tank Setup

  • Tank Size:

    • Minimum: 5–10 gallons for a small group

    • Ideal: 15–20+ gallons if mixing sexes or keeping a colony

  • Water Parameters:

    • Temperature: 72–82°F (22–28°C)

    • pH: 6.5–8.0

    • Hardness: 8–20 dGH (they prefer harder water)

    • Ammonia/Nitrites: 0 ppm

    • Nitrates: < 30 ppm

  • Filtration:
    Use a sponge filter or low-flow filter. Endlers dislike strong current.

  • Substrate & Décor:

    • Sand or fine gravel

    • Add live plants (Java moss, Hornwort, Water sprite) — great for fry cover

    • Driftwood and rocks for natural aesthetics

  • Lighting:
    Moderate lighting; helps show off their vivid colors and support plant growth

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Tank Mates

  • Compatible with:
    Small peaceful species like:

    • Corydoras

    • Platies

    • Guppies (they will cross breed with endlers livebearers)

    • Neon tetras

    • Pygmy rasboras

    • Shrimp

    • Snails

  • Avoid:

    • Large or aggressive fish (e.g., angelfish, barbs)

    • Fin-nippers

    • Overcrowded tanks (they breed fast)

🍽️ Feeding

  • Diet: Omnivorous
    Offer a varied diet for best color and health:

    • High-quality micro pellets or flake food

    • Frozen/live brine shrimp, daphnia, bloodworms

    • Crushed spirulina flakes or veggie matter

  • Feeding Frequency:
    1–2 times per day; only as much as they eat in ~2 minutes

👶 Breeding & Sexing

  • Livebearers:
    They give birth to live fry every ~3–4 weeks

  • Sexing:

    • Males: Smaller, brightly colored, pointed gonopodium

    • Females: Larger, rounder, usually duller with a gravid spot

  • Fry Care:

    • Use dense plants or a breeding box to protect fry

    • Feed powdered food, baby brine shrimp, or infusoria

  • Note: Males will constantly pursue females — use a 1:2+ male-to-female ratio or keep single-sex tanks if not breeding.

🧼 Maintenance

  • Weekly:

    • 25–40% water changes

    • Clean substrate and remove debris

    • Check water parameters

  • Monthly:

    • Rinse filter media in tank water (not tap)

    • Prune plants as needed

⚠️ Common Issues

  • Overpopulation:
    They breed rapidly — have a plan or separate sexes early

  • Stress or aggression:
    Caused by overcrowding, poor water quality, or imbalanced sex ratios

  • Disease:

    • Watch for ich (white spots), fin rot

    • Maintain good water quality to prevent issues

🌿 Tips for Success

  • A heavily planted tank improves fry survival and mimics their natural environment

  • Use a tight-fitting lid — they're small and can jump

  • Endlers are social; keep in groups of at least 4–6

❤️ Final Thoughts

Endler’s Livebearers are colorful, active, and low-maintenance. Their small size makes them perfect for nano aquariums or breeding colonies. With clean water, good food, and a peaceful setup, they’ll reward you with beauty and behavior.
