Can small goldfish and guppy be mixed, what does mixed culture need to pay attention to 1. Can small goldfish and guppy be mixed?

Small goldfish and guppy can't be mixed. The specific reasons are as follows:

1. Different habits: goldfish are cold water fish, which can grow normally in a lower water temperature, and they can accept a wide temperature range, and can live in a water temperature between 0-38 ℃. Guppies are tropical fish. Although they can accept a wide range of temperatures, they can only grow in water temperatures between 18 and 32 ℃ at most.

2, different body types: goldfish are larger. Although breeders can choose some smaller goldfish and guppies to raise together for the time being, the goldfish will become larger after a period of development. When they are bigger than guppies, guppies will be bullied.

3. Different feeding habits: Goldfish like vegetarian food, especially algae, aquatic plants, vegetables, fruits and other foods in water. Guppies like some live bait, such as common water fleas, water lice and water earthworms, which are more suitable for guppies.

2. What should we pay attention to in polyculture of guppy

1. Adequate oxygen: If the breeder keeps guppy and other fish together, it is best to install an oxygen pump, which can ensure that they live more comfortably.

2. Clean water quality: The breeder should change the water for guppy regularly and install a filter. This can reduce the frequency of changing water, which can reduce the discomfort of guppy.
