They have a gestation period of around 28 days depending on temperature. If conditions do not suit a female she is capable of holding on to the fry and dying rather than giving birth. Guppies need a temperature of around 75F medium hardness and Neutral pH. then follow the rules. The rules are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water but more is better. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week.Follow the rules and you stand a chance of keeping fish successfully. Miss out on any of them, and I can guarantee that your fish will have constant health problems.
