If there are too many guppies, the male and female can be kept separately to prevent them from breeding again. Newborn eggs can also be fed to the mother fish, which can not only supplement the nutrition of the mother fish, but also reduce the number of new fish hatching. If the fish is already born, you can choose a separate container to raise it for a period of time, and when the fish grows to about 4 centimeters, you can release it. When raising small fish in other containers, care should be taken to prevent pintail disease.
What if there are too many guppies? Can they be released?

1. What to do

if there are too many guppies? 1. Separate the male fish from the female fish and prevent them from mating. In this way, no more small fish will be born, which can reduce a large part of the pressure.

2. If the female fish has been mated and is about to spawn, it does not need to be isolated after spawning. In this way, the mother fish can eat part of the eggs, which can not only supplement nutrition, restore physical strength, but also reduce the number of small fish.

3. If it is a small fish that has been hatched successfully, it can be fished out and raised separately. Then wait for the small fish to grow to 3-4 centimeters, select it, and release the less ornamental fish directly.

4. If there is no place to release them, you can give healthy fish to relatives and friends, or sell them to aquariums.

2. Can guppies be released

? Guppies can be released, but they need to grow into adults before they can be released. Because of the weak constitution of young fish, their adaptability and defense ability to the environment are relatively poor, and they will be directly eaten by other carnivorous fish when released into the wild. So it's better to wait for the guppy to grow to about 4 centimeters before releasing it.

3. Can guppies be eaten

? Guppies belong to ornamental fish and are not edible. First of all, because the guppy is relatively small, its edible value is not high. Secondly, guppies may be toxic and may cause poisoning if eaten.
