Fun Fact

The term "Dumbo Ear" comes from their oversized pectoral fins that look like big elephant ears. When they swim, it’s as if they’re gliding through the water with graceful arm flutters — think synchronized swimming, but with more sparkle and zero drama.

The Red Mosaic Dumbo Ear Guppy is perfect for aquarists who want a low-maintenance, high-impact fish that’s always ready for a fin-fluttering encore. Treat your tank to a little underwater drama — in the best way possible.
