Dumbo Ear Guppies: Big Pectoral Fins and Showy Movement
Photos are a helpful guide, but guppies move and change in the light. Please look for listing videos when available because they show true colour, finnage, and body shape better than still images.

About Dumbo Ear Guppies
Dumbo Ear guppies are famous for their oversized pectoral fins that look like “ears” as the fish swims. This feature gives them a distinctive, showy movement that makes them stand out even in a mixed tank. This tag groups guppies where the dumbo pectorals are a major part of the look. Because the pectoral fins are large and visible, good fin condition matters. Calm tank mates and smooth decor help prevent tears. Dumbo fish also look best in tanks with moderate flow so you can see the pectorals moving without the fish being pushed around. Consistent water changes and a quality diet support fin growth and keep edges clean. When choosing Dumbo Ear guppies, look for symmetrical pectorals, good body shape, and a tail that complements the overall style. Some dumbo lines pair the fin trait with strong colour themes like blue, red, or metallic overlays, which can look impressive in photos. For breeding, select fish that show the pectoral size clearly and remain active and robust. If you want guppies that look different from standard fancy strains, Dumbo Ear is one of the most visually distinctive options. The movement, shape, and presence make them a favourite for display-focused keepers.
