guppies about 30 days of pregnancy. At the beginning of pregnancy, fetal spots will appear at the junction of abdomen and tail. Most guppies have black spots, while some guppies have red or orange spots. The color of the fetal spot will become darker and darker with time. The darker the color of the fetal spot, the closer the delivery period is.
However, not all pregnant fish will have fetal spots at the beginning. Some fish that are pregnant for the first time will have fetal spots when they are about to give birth. In this case, it takes only about 3-7 days from having fetal spots to giving birth.
After the fetal spot of the guppy turns black, it will produce small fish in 3-5 days. At this time, the breeder can fish out the female fish to be produced and isolate them for delivery. The breeder can adjust the water temperature in the tank where the mother fish is located to about 26 degrees, keep the water clean and provide food in time, which can help the mother fish produce.
Before the mother fish gives birth, the culturist should be careful not to frighten it and wait patiently for the mother fish to give birth to small fish. After the mother fish production is over, the mother fish and the small fish should be separated from the tank immediately, or the mother fish and the small fish should be separated with plastic sheets to avoid the mother fishing to eat the small fish. In addition, you can also put the female fish to be born in the funnel, so that the baby fish will fall out of the funnel, and the female fish will not eat the baby fish.
