Moreover, when the female fish produces, it will consume great physical strength. At this time, there is a strong sense of hunger, and the probability of small fish being eaten will increase. After guppy is produced, it is necessary to separate the big fish from the small fish immediately.

If there is no net, it is best to fish out the parent fish immediately after they give birth, so as to avoid the small fish being eaten.
