The Blue Cobra Guppy is one of the more exotically coloured of all Fancy Guppies. The male Blue Cobra Guppy has a dark blue body with an orange and black-spotted tail and dorsal fin. The distinct coloration and snakeskin body pattern of the Blue Cobra Guppy makes it a highly sought addition to the community aquarium. The Blue Cobra Guppy is also very hardy and quick to mature, which makes it attractive to both beginning and advanced hobbyists. "Cobra" guppies are distinguished by a rosette pattern with vertical bars on its lower body.
