Guppy fish are well known for their remarkable diversity, showing a broad variety of colour patterns, body forms, and reproductive techniques. Understanding the mechanisms underlying diversification and speciation is possible through research on the adaptive radiation of guppy fish. This review paper provides a comprehensive overview of various aspects related to guppy fish, including their taxonomy, anatomy, physiology, behavior, and habitat preferences. Additionally, it delves into the evolutionary ecology of guppy fish, exploring their remarkable adaptations, such as diverse coloration, sexual dimorphism, and reproductive strategies, and how these traits have evolved in response to ecological pressures. Guppy fish in captivity, including their husbandry needs, breeding methods, and the effects of captive breeding on their genetics and behaviour, are becoming more and more popular as aquarium fish.
