How to raise guppy cubs and how much water temperature is appropriate

Temperature: When breeding guppy cubs, control the temperature between 24 degrees and 28 degrees. Feeding: Guppy pups are growing and need to be fed twice a day to ensure adequate nutrients. Changing water: Guppy pups have weak resistance to lifting, so they need to change water frequently to avoid impurities in water affecting their growth. It is generally necessary to change the water every two days. Illumination: The growth of guppy cubs needs sufficient illumination, and the illumination time should not be less than four hours every day.

1. Temperature

The temperature of cultured guppy cubs is slightly higher than that of cultured adult guppy, which is generally controlled between 24 degrees and 28 degrees.

2. Feeding

The guppy pups had a higher demand for nutrients in this period. Under normal circumstances, adult guppies can be fed once a day, while egg guppies need extra meals and need to be fed twice a day. Feed at eight o'clock in the morning and six o'clock in the afternoon. When feeding, it is necessary to mix meat and vegetables, and live bait should be fed three to four times a week, which is beneficial to the growth of guppy cubs.

3. Changing water

The resistance of guppy cubs to pathogens is not high, so it is necessary to ensure the clean and stable water quality. No impurities or bacteria can appear in water. Generally, water needs to be changed two or three times a week, and one third of the water needs to be changed each time, and then one third of the water is injected. You can use tap water or old water from the pond to change the water. If tap water is used, it can only be used after drying.

4. Illumination

The growth of guppy can not be separated from illumination, and it needs sufficient illumination to grow healthily. During the breeding period, it is necessary to ensure about four hours of illumination every day, preferably astigmatism illumination. If natural light cannot be irradiated, artificial light can also be used, such as incandescent lamps, LED, etc., which can be used as light sources to provide illumination for them.
