CEBU GUPPY FANATICS: Battle of Guppy Masters
The Battle of the Guppy Masters was held last January 29, 2023 in Naga City, Cebu. The event was organized by the Cebu Guppy Fanatics, a group of guppy enthusiasts and hobbyists who aim to promote guppy keeping as a fun and competitive hobby.
The competition was the result of the founders' and organizers' passion and commitment to bring together individual guppy keepers from different places, introduce the hobby to a wider audience, and instill a sense of community in them.
The competition was a showcase of the beauty and diversity of guppy fish, with participants competing in several categories based on various criteria such as caudal shape, caudal color, body color to name a few.
The event was a testament to the hard work and dedication of the participants, who spent countless hours raising and caring for their prized guppy fish.
As the competition got underway, the judges took their time to examine each fish and evaluate them based on the criteria set forth. The audience held its breath as the results were announced, with each winner receiving a trophy and recognition for their achievements.
In addition to the competition, there was a sharing of ideas where participants and new attendees could learn more about guppy keeping, from feeding and breeding to water quality and disease management.
The Battle of the Guppy Masters was not only a celebration of guppy fish, but also a gathering of like-minded individuals who shared a passion for this fascinating hobby.
The event was a resounding success, bringing together guppy enthusiasts from all over the area and introducing new hobbyists to the joys of guppy keeping.
Cebu's guppy-keeping scene has flourished over the years. This can be credited to the so-called pillars of the guppy hobby in the persons of Jerome Arcenal, Dexter Ababon, Monching Pepito, Hetmor Moran, and to Native Folding Cages all of whom pioneered and levelled up the Guppy scene in Cebu.
