Guppies do not have too high requirements on the softness of water quality, so breeders do not need to deliberately control it. As long as the water quality is not particularly soft, it will not have much impact on their normal growth. Of course, if the breeder has the conditions, he can keep the hardness of water between 10 and 15. Because the hardness is in this range, they grow best. During artificial breeding, chlorine gas in water needs to be eliminated.
2. Do guppies like acidic water or alkaline waterGuppies do not have too high requirements on the pH value of water quality, and they can grow in weak acid, weak base and neutral water. In artificial breeding, the PH value can be kept between 6.5 and 7.5. However, guppy likes weakly alkaline water best. If the breeder has the conditions, it is best to keep the PH value between 7.2 and 7.4. Before each water change, it is necessary to adjust the PH value of the new water to be consistent with the old water.
3. How do guppies change waterThe pollution of guppies to water quality is not serious, and their metabolism speed is relatively high, so breeders only need to change water once every 3-5 days. The amount of water to change them does not need to be too large, and it should be controlled at one third of the total amount of water. If the breeder installs a circulating filter, it is ok to change the water every 5-7 days. If the aquaculture water body is large, the time for changing water can be extended appropriately.
