    Able to eat some professional fish feed, or crushed solid feed.

    There are a few more things to pay attention to when feeding newborn baby guppies:

    1. First of all, it is necessary to master the feeding time, do not start feeding the small fish on the first day after birth, and can start feeding on the second day. Note that the effects of the water environment on juveniles can be fatal, so ensuring a stable balance of water conditions (e.g. water temperature, pH, etc.) is key to ensuring that juveniles survive.

    2. Secondly, feeding newborn guppies requires special attention in choosing food. Professional fish feed can be chosen; Or wrap the egg yolk in gauze and crush it before feeding it to baby guppies. In addition, if other solid feeds are to be used, it is best to crush the feed first and then give it to the baby guppies.

    3. Finally, in the process of feeding guppies, it is necessary to pay attention to the appropriate amount, and generally ensure that the fish can eat the food in about 10 minutes. Remember, you can't eat too much or too little. If any abnormal situation is found in the guppy during the period, it must be dealt with as soon as possible, and do not delay the time.

    Newborn baby guppies cannot eat feed.

    The newborn child fish of guppies are not fed on the same day, because one is to adapt to the environment first, and the other is to have a yolk sac that has not yet been absorbed. From the second day, it is best to open the mouth with live shrimp larvae, which are rich in nutrients and easy to absorb, and have the effect of promoting bowel movements.

    During this period, the fish can eat as much as possible and eat to the fullest, until the stomach is hemispherical, and a little live bait can be retained in the tank at this time. The summary is "try to support as much as possible within 4 weeks, feed hard within 2 months to eat enough for a month, and feed less after 5 months". You can take the time to feed about 2 times a day in the morning and evening, especially in the morning after feeding, it is better to keep a little live bait in the sub-fish tank.

    You can grind the guppy feed and feed it to the baby guppies, be careful not to sprinkle too much, the water is easy to muddy.

    The baby guppies do not need to be fed on the first day after birth, because they still have nutrients brought from the body of the female guppies, and you can see that the baby guppy has a small yellow bag under its body, which will slowly absorb it by itself.

    The day after the baby guppy is born, you can feed half of the food, because its mouth is the size of a needle tip, and you can't eat too much feed, you can wrap the egg yolk in gauze and feed them, but pay attention to cleanliness, the egg yolk is easy to muddy water.

    You can buy special juvenile fish open feed, or you can crush the large feed and feed it, but the nutrition is slightly worse. Egg yolks can also be fed, but the water is particularly prone to pollution.

    Newborn guppies can eat feed, but it is better to grind the feed into powder, otherwise they will not be able to eat. Some people will feed egg yolk water, but you should pay attention to changing the water in time, otherwise the water quality is easy to deteriorate.

    If the conditions are good, feed the shrimp or the water, which is more nutritious, and the small fish will grow faster.

    Newborn baby guppies can eat some ground food, or some leftover feed from small fish. Fish insects and crushed egg yolks are also good choices for newborn fish. It should be noted that some breeders will feed some live bait to the small fish.

    This type of food can be fed to larger fish, but it is not suitable for newborn fish. It is also important to note that in the first day of life, the fish do not need to be fed.

    For newborn baby guppies, there are still more food options to choose from. Breeders can feed some crushed egg yolks to small fish, but the egg yolks can easily cause the water quality to become turbid, and it is still more troublesome for small fish to change the water. You can also feed small fish some ground fish food, or some fish worms and small fish leftover feed, these are excellent options, and it is also more convenient to feed.

    Because baby guppies are just born and can survive on the nutrients in the yolk on the first day, it is best for the keeper to wait until the next day to feed the small fish. The basic principle of feeding is to eat small, frequent meals. Another thing to note is that the water temperature of the fish should not be too low, it is best to keep it at about 25 degrees.

    There are also some breeders who feed some live bait to the young fish when they are born. This is not recommended. Because when they are born, they are not yet able to digest this larger food.

    Wait until they are older before they can be fed this food. These live bait are rich in protein and other elements that fish need, and feeding them live bait can make them grow better and faster. Short-term feeding of this type of food is fine, but prolonged feeding of live bait may infect the fish with parasites.

    This requires special attention from the breeder.

    Food selection: There are not many types of food that guppy newborn small fish can eat, and the keeper can choose some foods such as shrimp eggs, crushed bloodworms, and water migration, which are easy to digest and nutritious, and suitable for feeding small fish. Feeding frequency:

    Newborn fish can be fed 2-3 times a day, as they eat less at this time, but have a higher demand for food. Feeding amount: The amount of guppy fish can be fed more, and the stomach can be slightly bulging each time.

    1. Food choice: There is not much food that guppies can eat when they are newborn, and the keeper can hatch some shrimp eggs for them, or they can feed some chopped bloodworms, daphnia, paramecium, water, cooked egg yolks and other foods. These foods are easy to digest and rich in nutrients, making them ideal for feeding guppy fish.

    2. Feeding frequency: The amount of food for the newborn guppies is not large, and the keeper can choose to feed them a small amount many times. It is best to feed them twice a day, or 3 times a day if they are in good feeding condition.

    3. Feeding amount: The amount of food eaten by newborn guppies is not large, but the keeper can feed them more each time. It is best to feed them until their stomachs are slightly bulging each time, and it can also be decided according to the time they eat, and the amount of each feeding can be eaten within 3-5 minutes.

    1. Stable environment: Guppies are somewhat sensitive to changes in the environment, and keepers need to keep the environment in which they live to be stable and avoid environmental fluctuations that cause them discomfort.

    2. Proper light: Breeders can also give them regular sun, which can not only improve the speed of their metabolism, but also improve their resistance and immunity.

    1. The water temperature of the guppies raised should be higher than that of the annual guppies, because they are just born and have a weak physique, and the water temperature should be kept at 26, and the temperature difference should not exceed 1.

    2. The water for raising small guppies is best to be weakly alkaline, with a pH value slightly higher than that, and the fluctuation should not be exceeded.

    3. Newborn guppies do not need to be fed, and the nutrients they carry are enough to absorb for 2 days.

    You can feed it after the day, and you can choose cooked egg yolk or abundant shrimp eggs for the first feeding.

It is very important to take a name, it can reflect the cultural level and taste of the parents, I personally think that the words of the name can not be related to each other, if the relationship is not only very cheesy but also the expression of the name has been greatly reduced, for example, "Haoran", can form a word, so the two words are related, such a name may seem cool for a certain period of time, but when Zhang Haoran, Li Haoran, Ma Haoran appeared one after another, it became very vulgar, the name is very taboo and too ordinary, and the artistic conception expressed by this name is very simple; On the contrary, the artistic conception expressed by two unrelated words together is very broad, and each word expresses a meaning. In addition, since it is a name, it must be catchy, and it must be shouted with rhyme, and two words with similar pronunciation cannot be put together, hehe, of course, it is just a little encounter with me, I think Zhu Kenan, Zhu Yutong, Zhu Yuci, Zhu Zijian, Zhu Siyu, Zhu Ruoshi, Zhu Qinan is okay.
