Hello everyone
Everyone says that breeding guppies is easy (i'm talking about the breeding program w hich doesn't involve creating new show species, but just for fun)
I have trouble with my female guppies having babies
I put two in a breeding trap in a separate 10 gallon aquarium with a pH of 7.6, temp at about 79, and no ammonia or nitrites. I feed them regularly flakes, brine shrimp, and sometimes freeze dried bloodworms.
They seem perfectly fine, but they don't give birth very readily
Big , full bellied fish
So far, 4 days in the trap have produced three guppy fry (that I know of), one which was quickly eaten.
Their bellies are still very large, and the larger of the two shows signs of giving birth again (clamped dorsal fin, lack of movement)
those babies are like 3 days old.
Do guppies normally give birth to one or two babies at a time, and then give birth to more later on? is there a such thing as like prebirth or something?
Thanks all.
