The guppy fish from the West Indies and South America is a big ally in the fight against malaria and chikungunya. In open water bodies and rainwater tanks, guppies eat all mosquito larvae and prevent mosquito breeding.
The fish also can survive tough conditions in the water and breed within the carrying capacity of their environment.
There is always the danger of native species being affected by an alien species and that danger cannot be neglected when the fish is introduced into other ecosystems such as in India.

Yes an “alien …
Yes an “alien species’ is a species that is from outside a given eco-system, such as “zebra mussels” in the North American Great Lakes. Or something that hugs your face, forces eggs into your digestive tract, & busts out your chest, take your pick. Either way these species, once introduced, can be hard or impossible to eradicate, and can be VERY destructive to native species, sometimes causing the native species’ extinction. They can also become a pest to humans. Or a sci-fi horror nightmare.
