Guppies are fertilized in vivo. They are oviparous fish. When the guppy mother is pregnant with eggs, the male fish will constantly pursue the female fish, and when the female fish accepts the pursuit of the male fish, it will mate. When mating, the male fish will put his genitals into the female fish's drainage hole, and then discharge sperm, which is considered as the completion of fertilization. Female fish do not give birth immediately after mating, and need to wait for their eggs to mature before being born.
How do guppies fertilize and what breeding environment do they need 1. How do guppies fertilize

guppies belong to oviparous fish, which are fertilized in vivo. After the guppy mother is pregnant with eggs, the male fish will also be in estrus. At this time, they will keep chasing the female fish. After female fish accept the pursuit of male fish, they will naturally mate. When mating, the male fish will first convert its anal fin into reproductive foot, then insert the reproductive foot into the female fish's drainage hole and discharge sperm, which is now considered as fertilization. Female fish and male fish will not produce immediately after mating, and they will not produce until their eggs mature in the body. Guppies produce young fish, not eggs. When small fish are born, they can't swim flexibly, and the breeder doesn't have to feed them at this time, so they can be fed about 3 days after birth.

2. What breeding environment does guppy need

1. Constant water temperature: guppish is tropical fish and likes higher water temperature. Especially when they breed, they are extremely sensitive to the water temperature. Breeders need to install a heating rod to keep the water temperature at about 25 ℃.

2, stable water quality: guppies like weakly alkaline water, and breeders need to keep the PH value between 7.2 and 7.4. When they breed and wait for labor, breeders try not to change water to avoid affecting them.

3. Feeding: The guppy's appetite will be affected when it is about to give birth. Breeders don't need to feed them too much food at this time, so as to avoid polluting the water quality.
