I am not sure where you can get guppies in scotland. However, I at first had the same problems with mine. They always seemed to die. I soon learned that with buying guppies, it is just trial and error but alot of times, the fish stores just do not properly care for them and they mostly die from negligence or inadequate education on how to raise them. They are very durable and strong fish once you get the hang of raising them. I was soon successful at breeding many generations of guppies with lifespans up to 2 yrs. I had one live almost 3. I found this interesting considering they only live a few months or less in stores. All in all, I believe that the reason for the scarcity of guppies in your area is due to the stores not properly caring for them. Maybe you could purchase some from the suppliers that your local stores use.
