do guppies like to eat? Guppies like to eat plankton and insects. Their favorite insects are mosquitoes, Diptera, Monoptera and Homoptera. Guppies were introduced to Singapore in 1930 to control mosquito populations in the marshes. Because when they live in the wild, they eat mosquito larvae floating on the surface of the water with their mouths. But home-raised guppies can't provide such food. Breeders can feed with artificial feed and live baits, such as red worms, silk earthworms, water fleas, shrimp and so on.
? If you want guppies to grow fast, the breeder can feed them with artificial feed and live bait. The artificial feed can be pellet feed, flake feed, freeze-dried feed, etc. If the pellet feed is large, the breeder needs to crush it before feeding. The nutrition of the artificial feed is more comprehensive. It can meet the daily needs of guppies. Live baits can be selected from shrimp, red worms, mealworms, earthworms, etc. Live baits contain a large number of nutrients, which can promote the growth and development of guppies. However, live baits can not be fed as staple food, because live baits eat more, which can easily cause problems such as picky eating and indigestion of guppies.
