When many friends are raising fish, they will give priority to tropical fish, because tropical fish look better, and some tropical fish are easier to raise. Guppy is also a kind of fish that many newbies choose, it is cheap, and its long tail is very popular.
What should be paid attention to in feeding?
1. Water temperature and water quality: It should be stable between 22 and 26 degrees. Generally, I control it at 22 to 24 degrees for adult fish, and control it at about 24 to 26 degrees for newborn guppies. Guppies react violently to medicines and chlorine gas. Residual chlorine in the water is the main culprit for the death of guppies. Therefore, the water for raising guppies should be fully dried.
2. Lighting: Lighting is necessary for guppies, some people think it is necessary, and some people don’t think so. Xiaobian thinks that it is not necessary to use special aquarium lamps.
3. Bait: Newborn guppies can not be fed on the same day, one is to adapt to the environment first, and the other is that the yolk sac has not been absorbed. Start feeding again on day 2.
4. Change the water: change once a day, about 20% each time. Change 50% twice a week, change all the water once after 2 weeks, and clean the tank at the same time. In the first month of the fish, you can change the water like this: from the second month to the third month, change 20% once a day, 50% once a week, and change all the water once every 2 weeks; the fish after the third month , Change the water 20% every day, change 50% once every 2 weeks, and change the whole water once a month or so.
Due to the variety and variety of guppies, it is easy to cause reproductive confusion when male and female guppies of different strains are mixed together. Therefore, in order to obtain pure offspring, when raising guppies, different species of guppies should be isolated and cultured according to the breeding requirements.
