of the guppy 1. Early preparation: prepare a pair of scissors or blades, and disinfect them with alcohol or fire. Prepare a jar of coarse saline or yellow powder water with appropriate concentration to disinfect the wound after cutting the tail. Also need a wet paper towel with water, because the guppy body is slippery, if you catch it directly, it's too slippery and easy to make mistakes, so it's better to catch it with a wet paper towel pad.
2. Specific operation: Wrap the fish body with a wet paper towel, leak out the place that needs to be cut, lay the tail as flat as possible, and cut it directly to the end with a pair of scissors, so that it will be beautiful. If you cut for the first time, you can find a ruler and put it on the tail of the fish, and use the blade to cut along the ruler, so that you can cut it neatly.
after cutting its tail? The guppy can grow its tail in about 1-2 weeks after cutting its tail, but it's better to put it into the vat after 2-3 weeks. Because the tail is used to control the direction, the newly grown tail of the guppy needs a certain recovery period to be more flexible. If there are sharp or hard ornaments in the tank, the guppy may be injured. Moreover, the water quality in the vat is not as clean as that in the separate container. In order to avoid reinfection, it is better to wait for them to recover completely before returning to the vat.
