Generally speaking, newborn guppies need to be raised in separate tanks with their mothers immediately to avoid being eaten. However, if there are a large number of aquatic plants in the fish tank, it can provide a place for small fish to escape, in this case, no tank will not cause the consequences of small fish being eaten. However, the number of small guppies is usually large, if the tank volume is not large enough, it is recommended to separate them, otherwise the breeding density will bring disadvantages to their growth.
1. Small guppies get eaten: Small guppies are easy to eat if there are other big fish in the tank. Even if there are no other big fish in the tank, the mother fish is very hungry just after giving birth and will devour small fish.
2. Affect the normal development of small fish: each breeding after a large number of small guppies, will lead to them do not have enough space. If they are not raised in separate tanks, the fish will be crowded and unable to swim freely, which will affect their normal growth.
3. Inbreeding: Small guppies with the same parents stay in the same tank, and when they enter the breeding season, they will mate with each other and reproduce. This way of inbreeding will cause their species to deteriorate and the survival rate of the small fish will be low.
