Question 1

What makes Royal Guppy different from generic fish food?

Accepted Answer

Royal Guppy is formulated specifically for guppies and small livebearers — three key differences from generic tropical fish food. Micro-granule particle size: calibrated for guppy mouth size so adult guppies consume each granule cleanly in one bite without mouthing, dropping and dissolving food into the water. Enhanced colour pigments: carotenoids and astaxanthin at levels targeted for guppy tail and body colouration patterns. Protein quality: fish and shrimp meal as primary protein sources matching the guppy's omnivorous-to-carnivorous dietary requirements rather than plant protein filler. Generic tropical pellets and flakes fail all three of these requirements for guppies.

Question 2

How long will one 22g pack last?

Accepted Answer

At the correct small daily serving of 10–20 granules per 10 adult guppies fed 2–3 times daily, one 22g pack lasts approximately 4–6 weeks for a small colony of 10–15 adult guppies. With a weekly fasting day the pack stretches slightly further. For a larger breeding colony of 30–50 guppies, one pack lasts 2–3 weeks. The 5-pack at Rs 199 provides approximately 5–7 months for a 15–20 fish colony. The 10-pack at Rs 379 is the correct format for breeding rooms with 50+ guppies where weekly consumption is high.

Question 3

Should I crush Royal Guppy granules for juvenile guppies?

Accepted Answer

Yes — for juvenile guppies under 1.5–2cm body length, crush 8–10 granules between your fingers before adding to the tank. The resulting fine particles are appropriate for small guppy mouths. From approximately 2cm body length, most guppies can accept whole Royal Guppy granules. Newborn fry (0–3 weeks) require smaller first foods — live Microworms from Microworms.in, infusoria or commercial fry powder are appropriate. From 3–5 weeks of age, begin offering crushed granules alongside fry food as a transition.

Question 4

How do I maximise colour in my guppies?

Accepted Answer

The most effective guppy colour enhancement program: Royal Guppy as the daily base food (2–3 times daily), supplemented with Live Cyclops from Microworms.in 3 times per week. The natural astaxanthin in Live Cyclops is synergistic with the Royal Guppy carotenoid complex — the combined colour result is significantly more vivid than either food alone. For show preparation, increase to 4x Cyclops per week and begin 3–4 weeks before the show date. Red, orange and yellow varieties show the fastest response; iridescent blue takes longer (4–6 weeks).

Question 5

Is the 10-pack good value for a single-tank guppy keeper?

Accepted Answer

The 10-pack at Rs 379 (Rs 37.90 per pack) delivers a 22% per-pack saving versus the single-pack price of Rs 49. For a guppy keeper with a colony of 15–20 fish, the 10-pack provides approximately 10–14 months of supply from one order. Each individual pack within the 10-pack can be kept sealed until needed — the sealed shelf life of 12–18 months means buying in bulk does not risk freshness loss. For fish rooms with multiple tanks or breeding operations, the 10-pack is clearly the economical standard purchase.

Question 6

Can I use Royal Guppy for Endlers and other small livebearers?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Royal Guppy is appropriate for Endlers (Poecilia wingei), Fancy Guppies of all varieties, and other small livebearers with similar mouth sizes including smaller Platies and Mollies. For larger Mollies (Sailfin, Balloon) and Swordtails, the micro-granule format works but these fish may benefit from slightly larger granules as they grow larger. The colour-enhancing formula is particularly beneficial for Endlers where the small body size means colour intensity is important for visual appeal.

Question 7

How should I feed breeding female guppies?

Accepted Answer

Breeding females benefit from 3x daily feeding at small portions rather than one or two larger meals. Small frequent meals reduce hunger stress throughout gestation, support even fry development and avoid overeating that can cause difficulty in delivery for heavily pregnant females. Include one weekly fasting day to support digestive health between pregnancies. During active breeding periods, supplement with Live Cyclops 3–4 times per week for the omega-3 and protein variety that supports fry quality and female recovery.

Question 8

What is the difference between Royal Guppy and Royal Betta?

Accepted Answer

Royal Guppy and Royal Betta are both from the Royal brand but formulated for different species. Royal Guppy uses micro-granules sized for the smaller guppy mouth and includes a colour pigment complex specifically targeted for the red, orange and yellow tail patterns that define show-quality guppies. Royal Betta uses micro-pellets sized for betta mouths with a formulation that includes higher animal protein consistent with the betta's more strictly carnivorous diet. Both share the Royal brand quality level at the mid-premium price tier — choose based on which species you are primarily keeping.
