The follicles under the guppy can not become small fish. Guppies belong to the family Poeciliidae, and their reproductive mode is ovoviviparous, so the small fish are born directly from the belly of the mother fish. The so-called follicle is the substance that small fish use to absorb nutrients in the body of the mother fish. If the mother fish is stimulated to give birth prematurely, the small fish has not yet matured, it will produce follicles, not small fish. In this case, the follicles produced cannot develop into small fish.
Can the follicles under the guppy turn into small fish? What environment is suitable for the fry to live in?

1. Can the follicles under the guppy become small fish

? The guppy is a kind of fish. The reproductive mode of this kind of fish is ovoviviparous, so the eggs will hatch in the body of the female guppy, and then they will be officially born after they become small fish. Therefore, this kind of fish does not have follicles when it reproduces, but directly produces small fish. If the cultured guppy produces follicles, it indicates that the mother fish may be stimulated or frightened before giving birth, leading to premature delivery. The follicles produced are not easy to survive. The follicle, also known as the yolk sac, is the place where young fish get nutrients when they are in the belly of the mother fish to maintain their lives. When the yolk sac in the mother fish is completely consumed, the young fish is born.

2. What kind of environment

is suitable for guppy fry to live in? Guppy is a good fish to raise. This kind of fish does not require much water, and has a strong ability to adapt to the acidity and alkalinity of water. The PH value of the water most suitable for their growth is about 6.3-7.8, and the water temperature is about 18 degrees Celsius. But because the fish is very resistant to low temperatures, it can survive when the water temperature is as low as 13 degrees Celsius.

Guppies originally grew in Venezuela, Guyana, northern Brazil, West Indies and other places in South America. Guppies were then introduced to Singapore, Taiwan and the mainland of China as ornamental fish. Nowadays, this kind of fish has been widely distributed in rivers, lakes, swamps and ditches in some tropical areas. Wild guppies that grow in their natural environment like to inhabit freshwater basins, such as streams, lakes and marshes. This fish is very common because of its ability to adapt to the environment, its reproductive capacity and its ability to live in polluted waters.
