    No, 2 weeks of fish treasure is still too small, at least a month long.

    When polyculture with adult fish, you should also pay attention to the number of adult fish should not be much more than Yubao, otherwise when eating, Yubao will not be able to grab, and there are many adult fish swimming around, Yubao will also be very restrained.

    In fact, sometimes, big fish don't eat small treasures because they are hungry.

    Fish have a very low IQ, they are more sensitive to things that swim, and they will treat fish treasure as delicious.

    As a result, they peck Xiaobao, and when they peck it, they find that it is wrong, and then spit it out.

    As a result, Yubao was too fragile, so he hung up after such a toss.

    The adult fish was next to him, his eyes were very innocent, and he said, "Those who don't know are not to blame", :)

    If not, some of them will be eaten, and if there are aquatic plants, some of them may survive; It's best not to raise them together, and then mix them together when the small fry look at the mother fish and can't swallow them!!

    *No**. Guppies are two weeks old and too small, and they need to grow up to about a month before they can be raised with the female. At the beginning of the tank, it is necessary to observe the condition of the juveniles, and if they are not adapted to living with the larger fish, they need to be maintained separately immediately.

    Small guppies can be eaten by large fish in 1 month, and small fish need to grow to about 2 cm, if the size is too small, it is easy to be swallowed by large fish. During the rearing of the fry, the water temperature should be stabilized between 24 and 28, and a third of the water in the tank should be replaced after one week of birth. There is no need to feed on the first day of life, and a small amount of mashed egg yolk water can be fed on the second day to supplement nutrition.

    Guppy small fish can be with big fish for 1 month, during which the volume of small fish needs to be one-third of the big fish, and the body length is about 2 cm, if the size of the guppy is too small, it is easy to be sucked away by the filter after polyculture, and it is easy to be swallowed by the big fish, and the overall survival rate will be significantly reduced.

    Guppy fry have strict requirements for the environment during the growth period, and the water temperature needs to be stabilized between 24 and 28, and the pH value of the water body needs to be stabilized between to ensure that the water body is weakly alkaline or neutral. There is no need to change the water within 1 week of birth, and one-third of the water in the tank can be replaced after one week.

    When guppy fry are born, they will retain the nutrients absorbed from the mother's body, and they do not need to be fed on the first day, but can wait until the second day to feed a small amount of minced egg yolk water or abundant shrimp larvae to supplement nutrition. If the water temperature is high during the growing period, it can be fed at 9 am and 3 pm daily. If the water temperature is low, feeding can be done at 11 a.m. daily.

    If the breeder does not want the guppies to breed, they need to keep the male and female separate. Because the frequency and amount of reproduction are relatively high, if they are raised together, they will breed a lot of offspring.

    If farmers want guppies to breed, they need to keep them together.

    However, guppies are ovoviviparous, and it takes about 20 days for the female to give birth after pregnancy, and the male and female fish also need to be separated after pregnancy.

    1. Select broodstock: In order for guppies to reproduce, they need to select mature broodstock and put them in separate containers.

    2. Prepare the breeding environment: Breeders need to keep the temperature of the water they breed at between 23-26 and the pH value between so that they can grow better.

    3. Mating: Guppy males and females are placed in separate containers and wait for them to mate on their own. After a successful pairing, the mother becomes pregnant.

    4. Production: The mother fish will start to give birth after about 23 days of pregnancy. Before they give birth, the breeder needs to prepare a separate tank for them, and after breeding, the broodstock need to be fished out as soon as possible.

    Guppies are not required to be kept in pairs. If you are raising more male fish for ordinary ornamental breeding, it is recommended to raise more male fish, because male fish are more beautiful.

    Breeding generally adopts the ratio of 1 male and four females into the tank, and high-quality purebred guppies must avoid mixing with other species.

    Do not breed for a long time, the germplasm will decline.

    Guppies, also known as peacock medaka, rainbow medaka, called "anchovy" and "torch" in some parts of northeast China, is a kind of tropical fish of the genus medaka, medaka family, and the difficulty of raising is low. The feeding requirements are as follows:

    1. The acceptable water temperature for guppies is from 18-34, and the best is 24-26 2. The most suitable pH value for guppies is between.

    3. Guppies like hard water, and the hardness should be about 10 15 degrees.

    4. The lower concentration of nitrite can not be exceeded.

    Standard answer: Guppies are generally raised in pairs of 1 male and 4 females, not 1 male and 1 female, and produce fry every 1 month or so, about 10 seedlings each.

    If you don't want to breed, you can have a whole tank of male fish, after all, the male fish are bright.

    There is no requirement to have a ratio of 1 male to 4 females to maintain the optimal reproduction rate ratio, and the feeding temperature is 24 degrees.

    Feed more meals and less 3 5 meals a day, just feed a little bit on the line, eat within 5 minutes is the most reasonable proportion, you can reduce more than half of the meals.

    Before anything is put into the tank, soak it in disinfectant water for 1 day.

    I wish you good luck with your little fish.

    Generally, there are more males and fewer females, and the approximate ratio is male: females = 3 5:1. Because the tail of the guppy male is large and beautiful, when a group of male fish chase after the female, the scene is also spectacular! You say yes, right?

  9. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    Yes, but most of the males will continue to chase the female, depending on the size of the water body, and they can be isolated when breeding. Females can give birth to several litters when they are pregnant once.

    Hehe, are you going to breed? Under normal circumstances, it doesn't matter, the male is beautiful, if you watch it, you can raise the male, and the peacock is very good to raise.

    Yes, it doesn't affect at all, but in the end, it can only carry a male peacock, which is the same principle as other animals.

    Freshly born fry need to be kept separately because the emaciated fry can easily be swallowed by large fish. When the body of the fry grows to one centimeter, it becomes very flexible and is not easy to be eaten by large fish. At this time, you can raise it together.

    Or wait until half a month later, when you can see the color of the fry themselves. At this time, the body width of the fry is already wider than the mouth of the big fish, and the big fish cannot swallow them directly, so the big fish and the small fish can be kept in the same tank.

    Newborn guppy fry need to be fed separately. Because the space in the fish tank is limited, the female fish will feel severe depression after giving birth, and the newly born fish will be relatively thin, so they may be attacked and swallowed by the mother. Therefore, fry and large fish must be kept separately.

    1.With enough feed, the small fish will grow rapidly, and in about 30 days, they will be able to distinguish the sexes, and at this time they can live with the big fish. When the body of the fry grows to one centimeter, it becomes very flexible and is not easily swallowed by large fish.

    When it grows to two-thirds of the size of a large fish, it is safe to live with a large fish.

    2.The fry themselves are transparent, and their color cannot be seen, and by the time the color of the fry itself can be seen after half a month, the width of the fry's body is wider than the mouth of a large fish. In this case, the fry can be raised with the larger fish.

    3.When the fry can be identified as sex, they can be raised with large fish. Because the small fry have grown very large at this time, the big fish can no longer swallow them, and the small fry can be fed with the big fish.

    Guppies are a type of ornamental fish that many people like to raise, and the tail of the guppy is very large, and it is very beautiful to sway when swimming in the water. However, if we raise guppies, we should pay attention to the fact that juvenile guppies cannot be raised with large fish when they are just born, and they are easy to be eaten as food. Generally, when the juveniles grow to a month old, they can be raised with the big fish.

    Small guppies can be raised with large fish in about a month or so. Post-breeding guppies should be aware that the pH should be between before the juveniles are born. After spawning until the juveniles are removed, it should not be replaced with a 5:

    5 to 6:5 Feed the broodstock. In fact, broodstock usually only provide their larvae with breast milk for six to seven days.

    Otherwise, it will affect your health due to overwork. Juveniles are fished out on the thirteenth to fourteenth day after birth and placed in large tanks for rearing. Rest for three or four days.

    After the juveniles are removed, the broodstock have three to four days to rest.

    Small fry that are too small will be eaten by guppies and large fish as food. Female guppies can give birth to 10-120 small fish during the production process, and guppies will be very hungry after giving birth to small fish, but guppies do not feed through their eyes, but distinguish whether they are food or not according to taste, so they can't tell whether the things in the fish tank are food or small fish born by themselves, and only know that they are hungry, and the small fish will be mistaken for food and eaten. And small guppies can be raised together as long as they grow to 1 3 the size of the body of a large fish or the size of a tail and will not be eaten by large fish.

    The time is about 1 month, depending on the size of the guppy minor.

    Small guppy fry are best fed with freshly hatched bountiful shrimp eggs or broken boiled egg whites and yolks. The newly hatched brine shrimp eggs have high nutritional value and can provide the required nutrients for the fry, which is conducive to the growth of the fry. The excess is directly frozen, and the next time you use it, you can thaw it directly and then feed it.

    Guppy females can give birth to 10-120 small fish in production, when the guppies give birth will be very hungry, and guppies forage not through the eyes, but according to the taste to distinguish whether it is food, so they can not distinguish whether the things in the tank are food or their own small fish, only know that when hungry, the small fish are mistaken for food is eaten. And as long as the guppy fish grows to the size of 1 3 large fish body or large fish tail, it will not be eaten by large fish and can be raised together, the time is about 1 month, and the specific size of the guppy is less than the size of the head.

    Yes. As long as the mouth of the small fish is larger than the large guppies, it will basically not be eaten by the big fish, but the small fish are not able to grab food. Therefore, in order to facilitate the growth of small fish and cherry blossoms, it is more appropriate to wait for small fish to grow to 2 months old, but if you feed live bait (there will be no polluted water quality), in order to facilitate management, you can co-raise at the age of half a month.

    Small guppies do not need to change the water, and if the water change is not done well, it is easy to pintail the tail. If you use tap water when changing the water, you should expose the water to the sun for three days, and sprinkle some salt on each water change to prevent diseases.

Dead fish have to be fished out immediately, otherwise they will all be eaten, and it will pollute the water, which is very bad. Guppies are delicate. Tap water cannot be used, water can only be used after being exposed to the sun, and the water has just been changed and cannot be fed for 12 hours.
