If you mean for breeding, and of course they will, I would recommend sticking with a single color or strain. If they start mixing colors you end up with a bunch of bad looking fish most of the time.

I like the cobra blue guppies myself... they have a really cool color pattern. If you want to breed healthier fish, I'd get a fancy male and wild strain females. The wild strain females are generally healthier and hardier than the fancy one, and if your plan is to breed fancy guppies you can cull the non-fancy fry. The fancy fry will still have the hardy genes from the mother.

Buy the flashiest male that you like. Then buy some colored females---maybe a yellow, a blue, and a plain. Just remember, guppies reproduce like crazy! With 3 females, you will be needing more aquariums within a few months!
