How to raise guppies and how to breed guppies

1. How to raise guppies

1. Water temperature: Guppies are tropical fish, so the water temperature should be controlled between 22-26 degrees. If the temperature is too low, the guppies will suffer from anorexia and reduced activity.

2. Water quality: The best water quality for raising guppies is weakly alkaline, and the best PH value is between 6.8 and 7.4. Change the water at least once or twice a week. If the water pollution is serious, change it three times a week. The amount of water changed each time should be controlled at one third of the total amount of water.

3. Feeding: The guppy is an omnivorous fish. The breeder can choose to feed it with artificial feed and live bait. If the pellet feed is large, it can be crushed and then fed. Live baits can be selected from shrimp, red worms, water fleas, etc., which should be disinfected before feeding to avoid parasitic or bacterial infections.

ies Guppies are ovoviviparous. When they breed, the anal fin of the male fish will become genitals, and they will chase the female fish constantly. In the process of chasing, they will complete mating. After mating, the belly of the female fish will gradually become larger, and the fetal spot will also expand. Generally, about 25-28 days after mating, the female fish will spawn. Before spawning, the female fish should be isolated separately. When spawning, the water temperature should be controlled at 24-27 degrees. After spawning, the female fish should be fished out as soon as possible. When hatching, the water temperature should also be controlled above 24 degrees. Try not to change the water within a week after hatching. If the water pollution is serious, the filtration system can be opened.
