Guppies are internally fertilized. During the breeding season, the male guppy will release sperm into the female guppy and fertilize the egg. The fertilized eggs will hatch into young fish in the female guppy and be expelled from the body. Guppies breed very fast. They can lay eggs almost once a month. They can lay 10-120 young fish each time. They can lay many small fish a year, so they also have the title of millions of fish.

1. How to

fertilize guppies? When guppies are mature, male guppies will chase female guppies and then discharge sperm into female guppies. The sperm and egg then combine to form a fertilized egg, which then hatches into a young fish in the female guppy. After a period of incubation, female guppies expel their young.

If you want them to breed smoothly, you can choose male and female guppies with suitable age and healthy body to breed. Good parent fish can improve the fertilization rate. After fertilization, the spots on the female guppy's rump become larger and darker, and the anus protrudes. At this time, the female guppies need to be fished out and raised separately. Wait until they have finished producing small guppies, and then fish out the guppies to prevent them from fishing out the young fish.

Guppies

are high-yielding fish. Generally, their reproductive organs will mature 3-4 months after birth, at which time they can reproduce. They can lay eggs almost once a month, up to 12 times a year, and the number of eggs laid each time is very large, ranging from 10 to 120 young fish at a time. Generally, the larger they are, the more eggs they lay. However, be careful not to choose guppies within three generations, otherwise it will not only reduce the survival rate of offspring, but also increase the prevalence of offspring.
