10 Live Gambusia Mosquito Fish. Includes a mixture of male, female and fry. They are great assets for controlling pond/ aquarium detritus and other pesky insects. They are one of the few varieties that can survive Northern winters as well as warmer southern waters. They can thrive in indoor aquariums or outdoor ponds. They will eat insects and left-over food from other fish and require very little maintenance. Mosquito fish make a great overall tank and pond cleaner and are entertaining to watch. They are one of the best additions to small or large aquariums or fish ponds. Mosquito fish are often used specifically for mosquito control and they are prolific breeders. They are also live-bearers and great feeder fish. They can eat up to 300-mosquito larva a day and have up to 60 babies. They are very hardy fish when acclimated to their environment. Females can grow up to 2.8 inches and reach sexual maturity in as little as 30 days inches. Males grow up to1.6 inches. They multiply quickly and eat mosquito larvae, standard fish flakes, algae and small invertebrates. These fish are very hardy. Will ship Priority Mail (average 2-3 days delivery time) and include adequate insulation if the destination is below 30 degrees .We include extras to account for the possibility of doa. If upon arrival the total count of Mosquito fish alive, is less than you ordered, please let me know within 24 hours and include a photo of fish in unopened bag. I will issue a partial refund.

• Great addition to pond or fish tank

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these eastern or western mosquito fish? we need eastern
Answer:	I imagine they are eastern since they come from Florida. The seller is fantastic! He would know for sure. So far they always are in perfect condition when they arrive & the seller will inform you of any delays.
Question:	Can I keep these with guppies
Answer:	I will say yes. I have several guppies and goldfish and even koi in my small pond outdoors... I still have a mesquite problem but not as bad. They do eat the larva. I will say that they were so tiny when they arrived. Almost see thru and some were dead. However, they had a bunch of babies few days ago. Not sure how many will survive, I think the koi will snack on them if I dont segregate. Anyway ,if you could find them at local pet store ,I would recommend that instead of this seller. Especially if you live far from origin of shipping.
Question:	How long do they take to ship
Answer:	Hi, the earliest shipment date is Tuesday. USPS will be closed Monday.
Question:	I order some from you website on monday and h@ave not gotten confirmation if the fish have shipped yet
Answer:	You have to write the seller. Here you are asking questions to people who already bought the item.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I order white and orange no solid orange
Answer:	If you're looking for compatibility, check the current-usa website. This light is not listed as one of the compatible LED lights in their ramp timer section: https://current-usa.com/aquarium-ramp-timers/ So no, it's not officially compatible. The ClassicLED Plus light doesn't give direct control to the LEDs so direct color control is not possible without some bridging and soldering. Color control isn't possible either. Dimming would also take a good amount of electronics work. On/Off and night time modes are the only ones possible out of the box. Compared to the $190 USD for the Current-USA model, this one is worth the price so far. Nicrew does offer a Single Channel Timer that would allow for a ramp up and ramp down so you can simulate sunrise and sunset. It doesn't allow for color control or automatic night mode like the Current-USA models. https://www.amazon.com/NICREW-Aquarium-ClassicLED-BrightLED-Connectors/dp/B07KYLX2P6
Question:	Are they friendly to mosquito fish? can both species be together in a pond
Answer:	Nitrite is removed by biological filtration. Nitrite should always be 0-ppm. Zero is a sign the bio filter is working.
Question:	I live in Minnesota, what temp does the water need to be at when releasing the fish
Answer:	The upper range of the pH test is 8.4.
Question:	Is there any way u can request white and orange
Answer:	Dip strips are faster and easier than liquid test kits. No counting drops or shaking vials.

User questions & answers

Question:	does it float
Answer:	Yes, this product floats upside down. Don't buy, it is horrible and the fish will not eat this stuff.
Question:	How many per fish
Answer:	Our goldfish didn't seem to eat any. Luckily, they had enough plants to nibble on.
Question:	How big a pond is this appropriate for? We have 4 large goldfish in a 150 gallon pond
Answer:	I believe this will work well with the size of your pond....... But, it depends how long you will be away....... One of these discs will probably last about 3-4 days with 4 large goldfish...... If you are going to be away for an extended time, you might want to put 2 into your pond to ensure that your fish are fed while you are away..... I hope this info was helpful...... Chris
