Do guppies eat each other? Tell me the best way to stop them?<\/span><\/h1>\n

Think about the tank with the guppies inside our home. I think the show will delight those that love fish. The guppie is vibrant in colour and makes a fish tank happy. But cannibalisation can be very problematic if the two begin to eat each other. Are pigeons eaten in the coop? Guppies usually have no food at home. It\u2019s a peaceful creature. However some guppies eat larger guppies as a way of consuming more meat. This may also cause other fish to bite into your aquarium, particularly when you put them on top later on. Lets discuss the guppies they are eating.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s now talk about everything related to guppies eating<\/strong> each other.<\/p>\n

Breeding box<\/span><\/h2>\n

Breeding boxes are plastic container mesh designed for installation on aquariums. This will separate pregnant female guppyfish from the rest of her mates. The water is pumped from the incubator to the breeding chamber but adult fish cannot get into it. Once the baby is born, she should be discarded from the breeding trays so that she can\u2019t eat fry. The fry is safe in the breeding box as they cannot get into nor can fry get out. This is good for those who are currently unable to have a separate aquarium for fry and have an old tank that can easily be accommodated for breeding.<\/p>\n

\"Guppy<\/figure>\n

When transferring the female guppy fish<\/strong> into the new tank, make sure that the water parameters (temperature, hardness, pH, etc.) of the new tank match that of the home aquarium. After the pregnant guppy releases the fry, you should remove her as soon as possible to prevent her from eating her babies.<\/p>\n

Why do guppies eat other guppies?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Adult guppies have two meals a day. Guppy babies are also required to eat at least five daily to develop a strong immune system and to maintain a strong immune system. Consequently, guppy fish are usually more interested in food in the aquariums and tanks. Without enough food guppies get anxious and aggressive, fighting and eating one another, even male guppies at times eat their fries when hungry. However, don\u2019t feed your fish too much. It rots, causing bad water conditions.<\/p>\n
