Where are they from?
Guppies originated from Trinidad and Venezuela. The wild guppy is a plain fish and bares no comparison to cultivated forms of today. Wild guppies have been introduced to many parts of the world to try and control mosquitoes as they love eating the larvae and they are prolific breeders.
