How many guppies are born at once?
It depends on a number of factors, size of the female, also some strains have more young than others. I've personally seen anywhere from 10 to 35 fry dropped.
How do you know when your girl guppy is about o have a baby?
To tell if a pregnant guppy is about to give birth, there are a few signs to look for.
Signs:
1. Hiding away from other fish near the heater, filter, plants etc..
2. Loss of appetite (watch when you add food to the tank, she may just grab it then spit it back out).
3. Lack of energy. She may appear to just float around the bottom of the tank.
4. She will put her head down and her tail up. She will do this when she is about to start pushing etc..
5. You can also tell by her abdomen. It will be swollen and there should be a really dark (almost black, but for albino guppies bright pink/red) spot near her tail. This is called a gravid spot (which are actually the eyes of the fry inside her).
6. I noticed on my female, that a small white "dot" formed near the poop hole, a few hours before giving birth. This is her birthing canal opening!
If all else fails, you could place her in a breeding net or breeding trap for 24 hours and see what happens. If there are no fry, just release her back into the tank as the trap/net may stress her out.
You could also leave her in the main tank to give birth as long as there are plenty of hiding places for the fry. I use a mixture of dense leafed real and plastic plants. This isn't the best way to save ALL the fry but most should survive till you can scoop them out into a birth net/fry trap for proper safety.
Can two different species of guppies breed?
Yes they can and do. That is why smart people with fancy guppies do not allow the plainer ones in with the fancies. The fancies will not associate themselves with the reggos.
How long does it take for a guppy to have fry?
Provided her conditions are suitable 28 Days. If conditions are not suitable she can hold her young until she dies rather than give birth. Guppies need a temperature of 73F to 75F and you will need to follow the rules . :- 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.
Why do guppies have different colors in other stream's?
It depends on how much protein and vitamins are in the food they can access in that part of the river.
If a guppy has plenty of protein and vitamins it becomes very colourful and healthy. If not they can be quite dull in colour.
It also depends on what colour their mother and father were. If its father was blue and its mother was red, it will most probably grow to be either blue or red or maybe both.
How do know if a guppy fish is a male or female?
First of all, the question is confusing since a male goldfish could never be female. I'm going to assume you mean how to tell the sex of a goldfish. Following are some methods that can be used to recognize the sexes but even these are useless unless the fish are at least a year old, i.e., have attained sexual maturity. 1. Midline ridge: male goldfish have a ridge running through the back of pelvic fins to their vent opening on the underside. The ridge is either completely missing or smaller in females. 2. Firmness of abdomen: The area between pelvic and anal fins is pliable for females but very firm for males. 3. Shape of the vent: Though difficult to figure out, the female vent is rounder and convex, whereas the male vent is thinner and concave. 4. Shape of the pectoral fins: Male pectoral fins are pointed with stiffer leading ray and female pectorals are rounded, shorter with finer front fin ray. 5. Features: females are brighter colored and are more active. This could be a difficult way of pointing out a female but you could try! If all else fails, put a known female in the tank. A male will check her out. A female will ignore her.

Obviously, seeing as they are MAMMALS, they give birth to live babies, called cubs. The adult female mountain lion will give birth to a litter of 1-4 cubs, which will stay with her until they reach the age of 1 and a 1/2 years.
No.
Guppies are known as "Live bearers" in that the eggs develop inside the female (gravid) before being born alive. Betta's are an entirely different species of fish (search Google for more info). Therefore, they can not breed.

As long as your guppies and goldfish are relatively the same size, you should be ok. Goldfish seem to be more "docile" than other species. Keep in mind, goldfish can get big depending on your tank size and the number of fish they tank with. I've have had guppies with mollies, goldfish, and platies before and never had a problem. I would keep an eye on everyone though, just to make sure you don't have any tail-nippers. - Darkhorse

In pet shops in Australia they range from $4 to $7.50, but with any guppy breeder around the world it depends whether they're a serious breeder and the colouration or effort put into the breeding of that colouration. Mine are selling for $1.50... (I am a serious guppy breeder, just need to get rid of some. They should say; "They breed like guppies" not rabbits) but I have seen them going for over a hundred, and some for $35.

You can keep most tetras, some barbs(not the Tiger Barb it will shred your poor fish's fins). You can also keep a Beta fish with them but, be carful when you put one in with your Guppies because he might attack your Guppies.
Hope this helps!
What is the best guppies for breeding?
How long does it take for baby guppies to grow?
It depends on how well they have been raised. I have had them going through the motions at 6 to 8 weeks and I have had young females gravid at that age too. When line breeding, in order to separate the sexes early I used to use testosterone. This makes the males colour up before they develop a gonopodium. That way I could keep the females virgin until I had the right males to put across them to get the breeding I desired.
Are guppies and tadpoles the same?
It depends on the way you look at them, yes they are amphibious and they look similar, but you can tell it's a frog because it is mainly in water and look smooth, and you know it's a toad Because it looks old and warty. You can find them both near water because they both need it.
Hope this answered your question. :)
