A month old guppy can grow about 1 cm, and at this time it can distinguish the sex. Guppies are small tropical aquarium fish that eventually grow to a limited size. Females can grow up to seven centimeters long, while males can only grow to about four centimeters. In addition, the tail fin of guppies is relatively long, which can account for about one third of their body. When they reach adulthood, their growth rate slows down until they stop growing.
How big can a small guppy grow in a month and how should it be fed?

1. How big

can a small guppy grow in a month? The growth rate of a small guppy is relatively fast. It can grow about one centimeter in a month. Guppies are small tropical aquarium fish, so their adult body length is not very large. In addition, the body length of guppies of different sexes is also different. For example, the body length of adult male fish can reach about four centimeters, while the body length of adult female fish can reach about seven centimeters, and some female fish can even reach about twice the body length of male fish. In addition, the tail fin of guppies is relatively long, about one third of their body length.

2. How to feed

the baby guppies within one month? To feed the baby guppies within one month, there are mainly two situations:

1. Within 2-3 days after birth: the baby guppies just 2-3 days after birth have their own yolk sac, so the breeder does not need to feed them any food. They survive by absorbing the nutrients in them, which also allows them to better adapt and overdo the period after birth.

2, 2-3 days after birth: 2-3 days after the small guppies because the nutrients in the body lecithin have been absorbed, so the breeder needs to feed them some food, generally with high protein content, such as shrimp, tubificidae and so on. However, when feeding them these foods, breeders must pay attention to removing the parts that may cause harm to the young fish in order to prevent adverse effects on them.
