Newborn guppy fry, raised with half-month-old butterfly tail fry, will they be eaten?

Hello all aquarists, I am an experienced fish farmer. For more practical knowledge of ornamental fish breeding and breeding, please pay attention to everyone, let us raise water easily and raise fish happily!

I am a fish farmer, please pay attention to more ornamental fish questions, thank you!

Finally, I fished out all the small butterfly tail seedlings from the 1.5 meter fish tank. I am trapped in water again, which can solve a lot of my troubles.

These eight or nine peacock seedlings are not bad, at least there should be a week or so, but in desperation, they can only be temporarily put together with the butterfly tail seedlings.

More than 60 guppy fry, 45 butterfly tail fry, how big is the water body?

Many new aquarists are always shouting, why do the guppy fry they raise have pintails or death?

In fact, there are only three reasons for this problem, that is, the size of the water body, the water temperature and the amount of feeding. To put it bluntly, if our feeding water temperature is relatively constant, then this problem will definitely appear in the water quality. One is the water body. Size, one is the problem of water trapping, for these two reasons.

Well, I also roughly measured my ceramic fish tank. It can have a water body of about 60 liters. In this water body, there are more than 60 guppy fry and nearly 50 gold fry, and it is already half a month old. In fact, this The water body is not big, even a little small, so I decided that it is better to feed live fish and insects, and not to feed too much. As for egg yolk water, I dare not feed it.

For these newly born guppy fry, it is possible to add a little crushed pellet feed, crush it into powder and feed it three times a day.

After feeding them for three or five days, they will no longer have any problems eating small fish and worms. In fact, there is moss in this fish tank, which will definitely benefit their growth. If there is moss, there is almost no need Feed the fish.

But some aquarists responded that the appreciation effect was not good, so I decided to get rid of the moss.

It is necessary to catch fish carefully and change the water with old water. This is a must. Small fry cannot be stimulated by new water.

Fishing is relatively easy. At first, I decided to use the fish and insect net that I just bought. As a result, the fish net was wrinkled, so that a guppy fry could not be rectified. In the end, it was sacrificed, so I simply used the larger net. Ordinary fish net fishing, the action is slower, small guppy fry can also be fished up.

Since the guppy fry are too small, this ceramic tank is a so-called lower filter system, so the filter cannot be turned on, and the water can only be changed by means of bottom pumping, and every time the water is changed, old water must be used. There can be no problem.

Next, we need to pay attention to the feeding of small fry and the maintenance of water quality. As long as the feeding amount is not very large, these small fry can still be raised in this fish tank for a period of time, but after all, the gold fry has grown half in advance. For more than a month, the growth rate will be faster and faster in the future, and it will definitely involve the occurrence of guppy fry being bullied or a few cases that may be eaten.

Finally, there is the issue of fighting and cannibalizing between large and small fry, as well as the issue of tank separation or tank integration. There are actually many aquarists asking about these issues. The fish farmer sincerely says to some aquarists: our eyes Not for panting, remember.

Usually I don't pay attention to observation, just wait to ask others, I'm not a fish in your family.

I'm sorry I can't answer this question. I don't know what species your adult peacock is and how big is it?

I also don't know if your little fry are fed fish feed or fish worms? The small fry fed with fish and insects can be twice the size of the fry fed with fish feed at the same time. This question is not for others to answer at all.

If you really don't know, we can take out one or two fry to test it, including many aquarists who asked if swallowfish can be mixed with traffic lights, and when will the mini parrot fish and small fry be put together in the tank? Generally speaking, it is the same reason, depending on their individual differences and the size of their mouths, there is also a problem with the temper of the fish.

For example, these butterfly-tailed goldfish and guppy fry are still in the juvenile stage, and their swimming speed is not slow at all, but they all have four open tails. Guppy fry with strong physique, but they are also big-bellied, which may cause depression to guppy fry in feeding. The water body of the fish tank is not large, and the feeding of fish and insects should not be too much. The most likely result is that fish and insects Most of them were eaten by the goldfish, and the guppy fry stared there.

So, as they grow up, we see this happening, just split the tank, where is there so much trouble?

Besides, as they grow, they will grow step by step, and they will be divided into tanks one step at a time. Otherwise, don't keep them at all. It is very likely that the whole tank will be destroyed. Besides, the phenomenon of shrinking fins, pin tails or dead fish will cause problems. It will happen often, and generally these problems can occur when raising fry.

And assuming that after a month, if those blue enchantresses produce again, the small fry are not suitable to be placed in this fish tank, and they will definitely not be eaten by goldfish. ?

Finally, there is a small question. I just saw that some aquarists are asking, doesn't it mean that guppies raised in grass tanks will burn their tails?

It also depends on the water quality of our fish tank. Who said that all grass tanks must be of acidic water quality. If there are more water plants, I will not pull them out?

I'm using well water with great hardness here, don't worry, I'll deal with it if it doesn't get to the point where the guppies burn their tails.

All problems must be viewed according to the actual situation, and all problems stem from our own observations.
