In guppy populations, it's common for adult guppies to eat their own offspring, especially if they are stressed or hungry. The number of baby guppies consumed can vary widely, depending on factors such as the size of the adult population, availability of food, and environmental conditions. Generally, it is estimated that a significant portion of the fry may be eaten, especially in the absence of cover or hiding places. Providing plenty of vegetation and hiding spots can help reduce predation among guppies.
