What should I feed my newly bought guppies?

It is recommended not to buy bloodworms, there are many bloodworm parasites, but the bloodworms that are generally sold have been removed, so don't worry too much, if you must feed bloodworms, it is recommended to feed quick-drying bloodworms.

In addition, I recommend that you feed the fish, not a large one into a large one, but one by one, to scatter and crush, is the kind that is artificially crushed, this small feed is not easy to feed dead fish, it doesn't matter if you feed a little more.

Hello, my dad is also raising guppies, hehe guppies are gentle and lively, and they are an easy breed of tropical fish to raise. With a wide variety of colors, it is an entry-level breed for beginners in tropical fish. It likes to forage in the upper layer of the water, and does not have high requirements for water quality and water temperature.

When the water is warm to 15 degrees, it will not die, but the body color will become lighter. My dad said that the most suitable water temperature is 20-24 degrees, and guppies can be fed live bait, such as water earthworms, water fleas, etc. These live bait are the best for them, some can live in the tank for a few days, or even longer, and of course, it is better to fish out if you can't eat enough.

There is also a kind of bait that can not be fed for a long time, which will cause nutritional imbalance, so it is necessary to have a feed as the staple food, often with different feeds to feed, my family will also give it egg yolk, hehe.

How big? I feed my guppies by grinding the small feed. (Dan is not what I bought, it was born, grow up a little). Freshly raw, break the yolk and feed ==

Guppies can be fed small fish feed, not so professional.

Eat boiled egg yolks. Be careful for a week before eating. Just get a little bit and stir it up a little and you're good to go.

Newborn fish have yolk attached to the belly, so they don't need to be fed. Hey, it'll be mixed up with water. Remember!

Adult guppies are fed once a day, juveniles are best fed two to three times a day, juveniles are in the first period of growth, the demand for food is relatively large, and they need to feed more. However, the food must be fed in moderation and not too much. If you throw too much, you can't eat all the guppies, and it is easy to pollute the water quality in the water.

Feed in small quantities and many times. You can feed small pellets, earthworms, shrimp and other foods. The food should be minced so that it is convenient for the guppies to eat.

The number of times a guppy is fed a day is closely related to the size of the fish, and it is good for adult guppies to be fed once a day, because if they are fed more, the guppies' body is easy to get out of shape, which will reduce their aesthetics. If you feed too much food, it will also have a lot of excrement, which will spoil the water quality. Juvenile guppies should be fed two to three times a day, because juveniles grow faster and have a higher demand for food.

The amount of feed does not need to be too large to avoid burdening the guppies' digestion and not leaving them malnourished. When feeding, when the food is not finished, the remaining food should be removed to prevent the food from rotting and polluting the water body.

1. Silk earthworms: The nutritional value is relatively high, and silk earthworms have the advantage that they can survive in the fish tank for a long time. Guppies can continue to eat live food, so they will grow faster.

Silk earthworms can also be used as medicine to treat diseases, first give the medicine to the earthworm to eat, and then the guppy eats the earthworm, so that the effect of curing the disease is also better.

2. Harvest shrimp: Harvest shrimp is relatively safe, and it is relatively simple to prepare. It is best to feed guppies as soon as they hatch, because they still have yolk sacs at this time, and the nutritional value is very high. When the yolk is absorbed by the harvesty shrimp, their nutritional value is reduced.

There are generally two kinds of feed for home-raised guppies, the first is artificial fish feed, and the second is live animal bait. Artificial fish feed can be mainly divided into three types: frozen feed, pellet feed, and flake feed. Artificial feed is artificially produced, so it is highly nutritious and relatively safe.

Live feed, such as bloodworms, earthworms, etc., is rich in high protein and can effectively promote the growth and development of fish. However, they may carry parasites, so they need to be sterilized before feeding.

Guppies are generally raised at home with the following two types of bait:

1. Artificial fish feed: There are many types of artificial feed sold in general stores, which are mainly divided into three types: frozen feed, pellet feed and flake feed. Because it is synthetic, it will involve safety issues, and it is necessary for breeders to compare and select according to the brand and choose high-quality artificial feed for feeding.

2. Live animal bait: The advantage of this food is that it is rich in high protein, which can better promote the growth and development of guppies and increase their growth rate. The best live bait is earthworms, which not only have high nutritional value, can promote the growth of fish, but can also be used as bait.

When the guppies are sick, you can feed the medicine to the earthworms first, and then give the guppies to eat, and the effect is also better.

When guppies are born, it is best to feed them at regular times, three times a day. Feed some foods rich in protein to promote growth. By the time they are three or four months old, they can be fed only once a day, because their bodies are already mature and one feed a day is enough.

1. The preparation of the fish tank is mainly cleaning and disinfection. Disinfection is the use of boiling water disinfection, disinfection is thorough, there is no problem left after the disinfection of digestive drugs, and it is also the most environmentally friendly method.

2. For the stocking density of the seedfish, if the tank is 40 25 30 cm, the stocking density is about 50 to 60. The density is too large, the water quality should not be controlled, it is easy to get sick, do not pay attention, the density is too small, the tank is too small, the tank is small, and the fish do not need to grab the food, which will lead to the lack of excitement and sports, which will affect the growth rate, which is where many players have not noticed, and need to be paid attention to.

3. The water temperature in the tank is stable between 22 and 26 degrees (all tropical fish can adapt to this temperature zone). Adults are generally controlled at 22 to 24 degrees Celsius, and juveniles are controlled at around 24 to 26 degrees.

Newly-laid guppies are very fragile, so it is necessary to pay attention to the cleanliness of the water when rearing, and usually keep the water changed every three days or so. When changing the water for guppies, be sure to adjust the temperature of the new water to the same as that in the tank, and keep the water temperature at about 25. When giving food to a guppie, you can give it a good year shrimp, daphnia, bloodworms, egg yolks, etc.

The new guppies are more fragile, when feeding, pay attention to the cleanliness of the water quality, try to keep the water about once every three days, each time about one-third of the water in the tank is enough, and to keep filtering.

When the new guppies change the water, they must adjust the temperature of the new water to be consistent with the water temperature in the tank, so as to avoid the death of the guppies due to the temperature difference, and the water temperature in the tank is usually kept at about 25 degrees.

When feeding the newly fed guppies, it should be noted that there is no need to feed them on the first day, and a small amount of food can be fed from the second day, such as harvest shrimp, leeches, bloodworms, cooked egg yolks, etc.

Guppies have just moved to a new environment and may not like to eat. This is because it is more vigilant in its new environment, so it will not eat. As soon as it gets used to its environment, it will start eating.

If the fish start pecking at the walls of the tank, it is a sign that they want to eat, in which case they can feed. Once the guppies are able to feed normally, they can be fed with artificial feed and live bait. <

When guppies first arrive at home, they may be reluctant to eat because they have not yet adapted to their new environment. Don't worry too much about this situation, as soon as the fish gets used to the environment, it will start eating. The acclimatization time varies from fish to fish.

Under the premise of a stable breeding environment, they will gradually adapt after 1 to 2 days. If you observe that the fish start pecking at the sand on the walls or bottom of the tank, it is a sign that they want to eat. At this time, put food in the water and they will eat it.

After guppies are able to eat normally, they can choose artificial feed and live bait for feeding. The nutrients of artificial feed are relatively complete, and after processing, it is very clean and hygienic. They can be used to feed fish without worrying about hygiene and will reduce the chance of fish getting sick.

However, the taste of artificial feed may not be the favorite of the fish, so it is best to pair it with a certain amount of live bait to increase the appetite of the fish. Live bait is highly nutritious, but most of them carry germs. They must be cleaned before feeding.

Common live baits include daphnia, silk earthworms, and abundant shrimp, which are good choices for feeding guppies.

1. Artificial feed:

It is roughly divided into three types: flake feed, pellet feed, and frozen feed, which are the easiest to obtain and easiest to feed.

2. Live bait: The use of live bait has always been a mixed reputation, with high nutritional value, but there is also a risk of bacterial infection.

3. Harvest shrimp:

At present, the safest live bait does not need to take too long to prepare, and it does not require too many procedures, but after hatching, it should be fed as soon as possible, because the most nutritious nauplii are when they are just hatched. Vanity.

4. Daphnia: It is one of the common feeds for guppies, and Daphnia can be reproduced with green water.
