Yes! Like little bunnies. It is best to have one male for about three females. You should read up on live bearers and either get a breeding net or a divider box.
While breeder boxes are good if the momma catches you of gaurd and births early, a separate tank from about 3 to 10 gallons will be perfect for the birthing and raising of the fry. When momma guppy squares off, you know its time, put her in the birthing tank. It should have a heater, sponge filter and TONS of plants.

∙ 15y agoGuppies are considered community fish, there are a number of other fish that can be kept with guppies in the same tank, mollies, platies, swordtails, etc. Keep in mind that even if certain fish are considered community fish, there may be a bully or an aggressive fish in the bunch. Watch your tank for fin nipping or for fish being chased by another (not including males of the same species going after a female)
