Generally, guppies can only live for 1-3 years, which is a relatively short life in tropical fish. They are favored by many fish lovers because of their bright tail fins and body colors. Guppies have a mild temperament, which is very suitable for polyculture with other small tropical fish, and it does not require a high living environment, so it is relatively easy to raise. Guppies are more likely to die of pintail disease, white spot disease or Saprolegniasis, resulting in shortened life span. Breeders can prevent these diseases in advance.

1. How many years

can guppies live? Generally, guppies can live for 1-3 years. They have a shorter life span in tropical fish, but how long they can live depends on the environment in which they are raised and the constitution of the guppies themselves. If the living environment is comfortable and the guppy's own constitution is relatively strong, it is no problem to live for about three years. If the living environment is poor and the disease is not treated in time, the life span of the guppy will be reduced or the guppy will die directly.

Two, how to raise guppies is not easy to die

1, stable water temperature: guppies are not strict about water temperature, only need to be between 22-26 degrees. But they are more sensitive to the temperature difference, if the temperature difference is more than 3 degrees, it is likely to lead to the direct death of guppies. Therefore, when raising guppies, it is better not to let the temperature difference exceed 2 degrees.

2. Good water quality: Guppies like weak alkaline or neutral water. PH value should be controlled between 6.8 and 7.4, and the fluctuation of PH value should not exceed 1. Change the water at least once a week. You can change a third or a quarter of the water each time, but not all of it.

3. Scientific feeding: Guppies have a weak digestive system. Some fish friends will give guppies enough food, but they can't digest so much food and may die. Therefore, it is better for breeders to feed guppies regularly and quantitatively, and the amount of each feeding can be finished within 5 minutes. If you can't finish it, you need to fish out the rest of the food as soon as possible.
