Guppy

Guppies sexually mature at about three months, but are not full grown at that age. As a matter of fact many don't reach full growth due to several factors.

Their growth rate depends on things like tank size, water conditions, and food.

it is mature.

Yes. Goldfish are naturally used to being in light and may suffer if they are kept in the dark for long periods of time. It is best to get them a light designed for aquariums.

Yes. If he can catch them and swallow them he will. If you wish to keep and rear a few guppy fry then you should use a spare aquarium and have no fish in it except for the gravid female. Once she has had the young she should be removed too because she also will eat the fry. The babies(fry Whatever) will be hard to remove, so put the pregnant female in a tank that you want for the fry. good luck!

Guppies are livebearing fish, and so they've been bred in captivity so long and so easily that many different varieties have been produced including fantail, lyretail, veiltail and many other long/draping tail varieties. These occur in males and females. generally, the male's tail is larger, but if you compared, say, a male with a small-tail variety and a female of a veiltail variety, the female's tail would be bigger because she's been selectively bred to have the big tail. If you're trying to tell the sex of your guppies, there's an easier way. Guppies are livebreeders and use internal fertilisation, meaning that the male guppy has a penis-like organ known as a gonopodium that he uses to make the female pregnant. It's basically a modified anal fin and is located just behind the pectoral fins. A female with a tucked up anal fin can look like a male until you learn exactly where to look, it takes a while. the gonopodium points back towards the tail and is very thin. Males are often leaner in the body than females also.

If there is a female guppy and a male guppy in a tank you can almost guarantee the female will be gravid ( pregnant ).

No. A guppy is a small freshwater fish of South America and the West Indies.

The more "experienced" the fish is, the more fry she will have. I have had younger guppies have only 5 fry in the first batch, as well as older guppies (approx. 10 months to a year old) that have had 100.

2 pectoral, 2 ventral, 1 anal, 1 dorsal and 1 caudal. In total 7 fins.

The answer depends on the number of guppies. A few guppies can live in a 2.5 gallon tank or larger, temperature between 72 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Many people raise fancy guppies in 5.5 and 10 gallon tanks.

... if the guppies are big enough ;)

About 4 weeks.
i don't know ask a doctor or someone that knows i know you were expecting the answer but too bad

You can get guppies at a pet store, or a guppy breeder. A professional guppy breeder will probably have higher quality guppies. Also, once you have guppies, if you have at both genders, the female will probably give birth around once a month, which is another way to get guppies.

Guppies are the one of the easiest pet fish to breed in captivity. They do it all themselves, the only thing you may have to do is take the babies out and put them in a different container because the parents may eat them. I found that none of my guppies seem to eat the babies.

maybe theres a lot of the babys, just make sure you seporate the mom and babys right after theyre born!!:)

i hate to say it but it's probably dieing or at least that's what happened to mine. it could also have a disease

I have heard that guppies can live up to five years, but the average if they are not diseased is 1-2 years.

No. These fish will just add to the problem. If you need an elgae eater, there are plenty of fish of that kind that you can get. They are like catfish and feed on the stuff that dirties a pond.

1.flatted stomach

2.dissapearing of gravid spot.

3.became normal again (behaviour - not as nervous during labour time)

4.the hold just under its anus close or became more smaller or not that obvious then during labour time.The place where eventually the fry will come out.

Give her about 24 hours.

Bloodworms are a HUGE diet for fish in the Atlantic. Porgy, Sheepshead, Sea Bass, Sea Robin, Tautog, Winter Flounder, Fluke, Spot, White Perch and even small ground sharks and rays.

It depends on the strain of guppy you have, I've seen some males begin to get their color after 4 or 5 weeks, others 2 - 3 months. Keep in mind, much depends on how fast they grow, if you are serious about raising guppies and want them to reach full size, sooner and be very healthy, you need to do a few things. Water temp should be around 80 degrees, weekly water changes, fry should be fed a little bit every few hours, BBB (baby brine shrimp) or microworms at least twice a day, powdered flake food other times.

This is a risk because any fish that can fit its mouth around another fish will try and eat that fish, so be careful. But for the most part, yes, Dalmatian mollies will get along with guppies.

When a tropical fish turns dark or black it usually means it has become blind. Most fish adapt in some way to their background so that they blend in better and avoid being eaten. A blind fish, seeing nothing but darkness often will change its color to reflect this darkness becoming darer in color or black.

Sexual reproduction of a sponge Sponges do not give birth or hatch from an egg. A sponge has both sperm and egg cell. The sponge releases sperm cell. The sperm cell lands in another sponge and fertilizes the egg cell in the sponge. The sperm and egg cell produce a larva. A larva is an immature form of an animal that looks different from the adult form. The larva gets taken away by the current and lands on a hard surface and grows into a sponge. Budding of a sponge ( a form of asexual reproduction) off the sides of a sponge a sponge grows. That sponge breaks off and lands on a hard surface and is a sponge.
