Guppies are ovoviviparous and internally fertilized. In the environment where the water temperature is 26 degrees, the water body is clean and the water quality is good, the parent fish are put in according to the ratio of 4:1 between male and female. The abdomen of the female fish in heat will become larger, and the male fish will chase the female fish constantly, and after a period of time, it will mate on its own. After successful mating, the female fish should be fished out separately to avoid the male chasing the female fish. When the female's fetal spots become large and black and her anus bulges, it is best to put them in a special breeding tank for delivery.
Breeding methods of guppy and matters needing attention during breeding

1. the breeding method

of guppy is that guppy is ovoviviparous, fertilized in vivo, and produces small guppy fry, which does not need special incubation. In order for guppies to breed, the water temperature should be stabilized at 26 degrees first, and the water temperature should not fluctuate too much. The water quality should be good, and the water should be changed immediately when there are impurities. Select the parent fish on the basis of ensuring the water quality. Select the male and female fish according to the ratio of 4:1. Guppies with strong bodies and good genes

should be selected. After putting in the parent fish, they will mate by themselves. After the guppies are pregnant, they will rest alone. In about 23 days, the baby guppies will be born. The fetal spot of the female fish is black and large, and the anus will bulge. At this time, the female fish should be put into the breeding tank to ensure the water temperature and quality, and wait patiently for about 2 days, then the guppy can be produced.

2. Precautions

for guppy breeding 1. Male and female fish are fed together during mating period, which can reduce the interference of other fish and increase the mating rate of male and female fish.

2. When the male fish and the female fish mate successfully, they should be separated in time to avoid the male fish attacking the female fish again. Pregnant female fish should be fed with nutritious food, which can enhance the physical fitness of female fish and facilitate the development of fertilized eggs.

3. When breeding, there should be special personnel to guard, and timely treatment should be made after problems are found, so as to avoid the death of the fish caused by the failure of timely midwifery when the female fish has dystocia.
