After the production of guppies, it is very easy for them to eat their own small fish. For guppies, they don't know their own little fish. The female fish, which has just given birth, is very physically demanding and will become very hungry. The newborn fry is very small, weak swimming ability, it is easy to become the food target of parent fish, so there will be guppies eating small fish. And when the parent fish is irritable and can not get a good rest, it will also eat the small fish. If the female fish is found to produce black feces, it indicates that it has eaten the newly born fish.
1. Isolation: guppies do not eat small fish during the production process. After the birth, it will go to find food, and then the small fish will be eaten as food. In order to prevent the female fish from eating the small fish, it will be fished out immediately after its production is completed and isolated from the small fish. So that the female fish can't eat the small fish. Generally speaking, when the female's belly is flat again, the production is almost over, and it is the most appropriate time to fish out.
2. Planting aquatic plants: a large number of aquatic plants are planted in the fish tank, and small fish can hide among the aquatic plants after birth. In this way, it will not be found by the parent fish, and it will not be eaten. After a week, when the fish are about a third the size of adults, there is no need to worry about them being eaten.
