Can guppy tail be bitten off die, bite off still grow out

Guppies don't die when their tails are bitten off, because tail injuries don't endanger their lives. In addition, their tails are relatively large, and there won't be too much problem when they are bitten off, so they won't die under normal circumstances. However, guppies are small in size, and if they are bitten by other large fish, their lives may be in danger. Because large fish are more aggressive, they may bite off their whole tails.

1. Will guppy die if its tail is bitten off

If its tail is not bitten off much, it will generally not die. Because minor tail injuries will not affect their life and health, some bites of guppies' tails will not endanger their lives. If the guppy's tail is bitten seriously, it is possible to die. Because of their small size, if all their tails are bitten off by large fish, their lives will be endangered.

2. Do guppies grow after their tails are bitten off

If guppies' tails are not bitten off seriously, they may grow off. Because the guppy's tail has the ability to regenerate, a slight injury can grow a new tail as long as it is taken care of properly. If breeders want them to grow new tails, they must clean up the injured parts, apply anti-inflammatory drugs and keep the water clean. After 1-3 months, they can grow new tails.

If the guppy's tail is bitten off completely, the chance of regeneration is not very high. Because the tail of guppy is relatively large, if it is broken from the root, it is difficult to recover. Moreover, after the whole tail of guppies is bitten off, it will have a great impact on their normal life, and their life span will also be affected.
