of other fish? 1. Different species: Guppies of different races will fight, because the species are different, so they will fight for territory, and it is easy to hurt the tail when fighting.
2. Competing for mates: Guppies have a large number of offspring. If there are fewer females and more males in the tank, the males will fight for mates. The behavior of guppies biting each other's tails is fighting.
3. Sick: Guppies are gentle and don't like to fight, but they also like to bully the small. If a fish gets sick, they will bully the sick fish until they die.
after being bitten? The tail of guppy can grow after being bitten, but during the period when the tail grows out, it needs to be raised separately and disinfected regularly to avoid infection with Saprolegniasis. Moreover, erythromycin ointment or potassium permanganate solution should be applied to the injured parts of guppies, and water should be changed frequently to ensure clean water quality. It should be noted that between the healing of the wound in the tail, try not to feed. Although guppies can regenerate their tails, the new tail is likely to be less beautiful than the previous one, so it is better for breeders to minimize the frequency of guppies fighting.
