A goldfish goes through several life phases. First it starts off as an egg. After it hatches, it is a "child". Then, it becomes an adult. For a goldfish, it can take around 3 months before it is able to have babies.

Goldfish lay eggs. Once fertilized, it takes 48 to 72 hours for the eggs to hatch.

After fertilization occurs inside the female guppy, depending upon the temperature of the water, the ova takes about 3 to 4 weeks to develop into a tiny fish. They can be born at any time after this.

Guppies do not lay eggs. Guppies are livebearers, and a pregnant female will give birth approximately 28 days after conception.

The guppy is a sort of diiferent fish because they can store sperm. But about 1 day after giving birth, they can mate again.
