Female Leopard Cobra Guppy

Female Leopard Cobra Guppy - Leopard-Spot Cobra Pattern in a Hardy Female

The Female Leopard Cobra Guppy displays the same leopard-spot cobra patterning that makes this strain popular, but in the fuller, hardier body typical of female guppies. Her larger frame gives the pattern extra room to spread, making the detail even more pronounced.

She is robust and adaptable, settling into new aquariums with ease and showing little sign of stress once acclimatised. Her temperament is calm and social, and she moves comfortably among other peaceful community fish.

At N8 Aquatics, our fish are carefully raised and conditioned to ensure healthy stock suited to home aquariums.
