Peaceful

setting up a tank for a Metal Leopard (often referring to a specific color variant of the Poecilia reticulata or a hybrid Leopard Guppy/Endler), the goal is to create a peaceful community environment that highlights their metallic scales and leopard-patterned tails.
Recommended Tankmates
Since Metal Leopards are generally small and peaceful, choose tankmates that won't outcompete them for food or nip at their long fins: 
Corydoras Catfish: Species like the Sterbai Cory are excellent bottom-dwellers that keep the substrate clean without bothering the guppies.
Small Tetras: Neon or Ember Tetras provide vibrant color contrast and share similar water parameter requirements.
Dwarf Shrimp: Amano Shrimp or Cherry Shrimp are great for algae control, though you should provide plenty of moss for shrimplets to hide in.
Snails: Nerite or Mystery Snails are compatible and add diversity to the cleanup crew.
Tank Setup Essentials
Plants: Use a mix of floating plants like Water Lettuce and dense background plants like Java Fern to provide security and fry cover.
Water Conditions: Maintain a temperature between 72°F and 82°F with a slightly alkaline pH (7.0–8.0).
Filtration: A sponge filter or a hang-on-back filter with an intake sponge is recommended to prevent the fish or fry from being sucked into the motor.
