O oddballfish Feeder Fish MFK Member Oct 4, 2010 249 0 0 WA Nov 29, 2010 #1 Just wondering what the lowest temp a guppy can live in? I heard they can survive in 60 or lower. My one tank stays about 65 to 68 without a heater.

I've had great luck with deworming and quarantining "feeder" guppies. It is a shot in the dark but you are guaranteed to have some dang hardy genetics in there.
