Direction
🐠 How to Acclimate New Guppy Fish
🔹 📦 Unpack Carefully – Gently remove the bag containing your guppies from the shipping box.
🔹 🌡️ Float to Match Temperature – Place the sealed bag in your tank for 15-20 minutes to equalize water temperature.
🔹 💧 Drip Acclimate – Slowly add small amounts of tank water to the bag every 5 minutes for about 30-45 minutes.
🔹 🏠 Release Gently – Use a net to transfer the guppies into the tank, avoiding adding bag water.
🔹 💡 Dim the Lights – Reduce lighting for a few hours to minimize stress.
🔹 🌊 Monitor Behavior – Guppies may be shy at first; allow them time to explore.
🔹 🛡️ Check Water Parameters – Ensure pH, temperature, and ammonia levels match their needs.
🔹 🍽️ Wait Before Feeding – Feed after 4-6 hours once they’ve adjusted.
With proper acclimation, your guppies will settle in quickly and thrive in their new home! 😊

Yellow Dragon Guppy Fish – Brilliant Yellow Color with Bold Dragon Pattern
💛 Bright Golden Yellow with Intricate Dragon-Style Markings
The Yellow Dragon Guppy Fish is a vibrant fancy guppy variety featuring brilliant yellow and golden coloration combined with a detailed Dragon-style pattern across the body and fins. Its bright color, patterned scales, and flowing tail create a bold appearance that stands out beautifully in planted and display aquariums.
The signature Dragon pattern is formed by intricate scale markings, fine lines, spots, and contrasting details that give the fish an armored, dragon-scale appearance. Against the bright yellow base, these darker markings become especially visible and add depth to the overall coloration.
Depending on the individual fish and aquarium lighting, the yellow tones may range from soft lemon yellow to rich golden yellow, sometimes with subtle metallic highlights. The large flowing tail and dorsal fin help showcase the Dragon pattern as the fish moves through the water.

So happy with these fish! Was a little hesitant about buying online, but was so worth it! These little fish came well packaged, healthy, and absolutely beautiful!
Overall very pleased with the guppies.
I was hoping to get green dragon guppies but they are more on the blue side.
Great quality. Look forward to buying more.
This was my first time ordering fish online and to be honest I was nervous about the shipping process. However, the fish were very well packaged and all of my fish survived and are healthy. The quality of the fish are also very high and they are the highlight of my aquarium. I will be ordering my fish from Tropicflow in the future.
Absolutely love their colors and even got a 6th. so a free one which was super nice of them. They are still doing great after a few weeks and look stunning when swimming
I was really hoping they would come alive. And thankfully thanks to there awesome packaging system the did. Yes we’re they a little bit skinny and skittish yes but they also spent some time in transit. Will totally but more fish from them in the future. (Sorry about the pictures they don’t do them Justice)
I've bought 4-5 additions to my tank from Tropicflow, these were packed and shipped in the best possible way, and better than any other seller. The fish looked exactly like the pictures, they are clearly in good health, and they adapted faster than any other addition to the tank I've ever gotten.
