Guppies are afraid of cold, although they have the ability to resist cold, and compared with other tropical fish, they can accept a little lower temperature. However, too low water temperature will cause them to have problems such as loss of appetite, decreased activity and decreased immunity, so they are still afraid of cold. Especially after entering autumn and winter, the water temperature will change dramatically. When the water temperature is too low, they may die.
Are guppies afraid of cold and need to be warmed up 1. Are guppies afraid of cold

Guppies are afraid of cold. Although they can tolerate lower water temperature, they are tropical fish after all and cannot grow in particularly cold environment. If the water they live in is too warm, it may lead to changes in their activity, appetite and immunity. Especially after entering autumn and winter, the temperature in most parts of China will suddenly change. When the temperature is lower than 10-15 ℃, they may die.

2. Do guppies need to be warmed?

Guppies need to be warmed. They are tropical fish and like higher water temperature. Although they can live in a lower water temperature, if the water temperature is too low, their growth state and physique will deteriorate. After a long time, there may be illness or death. Therefore, to raise guppies, it is necessary to heat them up. If the breeder is located in the south of China and the climate is comfortable, it is enough to warm them only in winter. If the breeder is located in the north of China and the climate is very cold, the breeder needs to start using the heating rod after entering autumn, so as to ensure that they can live normally.

When raising guppies artificially, it is best to keep the water temperature between 24-26 ℃ with a heating rod. Because in this interval, their appetite and activity are the highest, and their growth state is also the best.
