CATDOLL : CATDOLL: weight, length, color, etc. of guppies

1. Weight, length, color, etc. of guppies

Guppies come in many colors, with a body length of 4 to 5 cm. Adult males are about 3 cm long, and adult females can reach 5 to 6 cm. They are usually active and lively, but have a short lifespan. Male guppies weigh more than 10 jin, while females weigh 7-8 jin. Males weigh more than 10 jin, while females weigh about 7-8 jin.

2. The growth cycle of guppies

When the environment is suitable for the reproduction cycle, the fish can reproduce once a month, and the number of small fish in one litter is about 15 to 100. After three to five months of breeding, the small fish have reproductive ability again and can reproduce the next generation. The second litter will be born on the 25th day after the first litter, sometimes 1 or 2 days earlier, but not more than 25 days.

【Guppy】

Originally from Venezuela, Guyana, the West Indies, and northern Brazil in South America, guppies were introduced to Singapore, Taiwan, and the mainland as ornamental fish. They are now thriving in the lower reaches of rivers, lakes, and ditches in some tropical regions. Their wild habitats are diverse, mainly inhabiting freshwater basins and lakes. Guppies have a strong reproductive capacity, can tolerate polluted waters, and are gregarious.

【shape】

The fish has a slender body, a flat back, and a very beautiful tail. The size and color of the male and female fish are quite different. The male fish is thin and small, with a body length of 4 to 5 cm. The dorsal fin is long and pointed, the caudal fin is wide and long, accounting for more than half of the total length, and the caudal peduncle is long and larger than the height of the caudal peduncle. According to the shape of its caudal fin, it is divided into upper ten-tail, lower sword tail, double sword tail, harp tail, needle tail, round tail, flag tail, fan tail, triangle tail, scissor tail, sharp tail, and large tail.

【Habits】

Guppies are very adaptable, with the most suitable growth temperature of 22-24℃. They prefer slightly alkaline water with a pH of 7.2-7.4. They have a wide range of food habits, are mild-tempered, lively and active, and can be mixed with other tropical fish. Guppies are easy to raise, but to obtain fish with bright colors and beautiful shapes, they need a large water body, more aquatic plants, fresh bait, and suitable water quality from the fry stage.

When the environment is suitable for the reproduction cycle, the fish can reproduce once a month, and the number of small fish in one litter is about 15 to 100. After three to five months of breeding, the small fish have reproductive ability again and can reproduce the next generation. The second litter will be born on the 25th day after the first litter, sometimes 1 or 2 days earlier, but not more than 25 days.

Guppies are ovoviviparous fish. Guppies give birth once a month, and depending on the size of the female fish, they can produce 10-120 fry each time. The newly born fry are about 0.8-1 cm long and can swim freely and eat. After 3-4 months of feeding, the fry will enter the mature stage and can reproduce. The time of sexual maturity is closely related to the water temperature and feeding conditions.

In simple terms, the little fish are born very small and eat some very finely chopped food (brine shrimp or something like that, I just crushed up the dried fish food at the time). They have no color and their gender cannot be distinguished.

Then the fish grows and grows, and you can feed it normal Putt fish food. You can distinguish the color, species, gender, etc.

After a few months, the next generation of peacocks can be bred. After the female fish is pregnant with the little fish, her belly becomes bigger and bigger, and then you can see the black behind her belly, and sometimes you can even see the eyes of the little fish. As long as they don't die, the peacocks can continue to reproduce~ So it's actually very easy to raise, and it's very rewarding. But generally peacocks die of old age in about two years. The temperature should be around 24 degrees, and this temperature is fine all year round~

3. The ornamental fish has a flat body and long whiskers on its abdomen

The swallowfish (scientific name: Platax teira), also known as the angelfish, has a diamond-shaped body, is extremely flattened laterally, has a straight rear edge of the caudal fin, and has dorsal and anal fin rays that extend backwards, symmetrically up and down, like an open sail. The pelvic fin is particularly long and filamentous. From the side, it looks like a swallow flying in the air, so it is also called the swallowfish. It is distributed in the Indian Ocean, the east coast of Africa, the Red Sea, east to Australia, north to Japan, and the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait. It is a warm-water pelagic fish. It often lives under floating objects on the sea surface.
