A bright and active livebearer with flowing comet-style finnage and soft pink tones
The Pink Comet Swordtail is a beautiful variation of the classic swordtail, featuring soft pink to peach colouration paired with elegant extended finnage. Males develop the iconic “sword” extension on the tail, while the comet-style finnage adds extra flow and movement throughout the aquarium.
Hardy, energetic, and beginner-friendly, Swordtails are excellent community fish that thrive in planted aquariums with open swimming space. Their constant activity and vibrant colour make them a standout addition to tropical setups. As livebearers, they may breed readily in the right conditions, bringing even more life and movement to the tank.
