My bought 4 guppies 2 weeks ago and the mama guppy dropped around a dozen babies shortly after. There are few of the babies don't look like guppies at all. They are much darker color and swim 45 degree, and they like to stay still on the bottom of the breeder. What could be the type of fish that mated mama guppy?

Guppies most time with darker coloring tend to be females. However, their is a breed called the tiger guppy that look like they are tiger stripped orange and black.
Guppies for the most part all swim at 45 degree angles.

The guppy will nevertheless want a heater in there, besides as a filter out. I advise to flow out and purchase a breeding capture/information superhighway. it is a plastic or mesh field which will waft on accurate of your water. Having the child/children in there'll avert them from being eaten or sucked up by technique of the filter out. and also, flow out and purchase infant fish nutrition, it is basically a powder because the flakes you're feeding your fish are way too enormous for the fry to devour. And feed the fry some situations an afternoon, only a tiny pinch. also, verify below your adorns close to the bottom and seem for any extra, because this is uncommon that youngsters in difficulty-free words are available ones. So until eventually they were already eaten or sucked up by technique of the filter out, or in basic terms did not live on, they are nevertheless in there! solid success!!

are guppy.
People breeding their own guppies should be aware that the adults will eat their young. Specially designed livebearer birthing tanks, which can be suspended inside the aquarium, are available from aquatic retailers. These serve the dual purpose of shielding the pregnant female from further attention from the males, and of providing a separate area for the newborn young as protection from being eaten by their mother.

Actually, guppies can breed with other fish. Maybe she got it on with a mollie. I had a wild grey minnow that mated with a neon tetra and made all these phychadelic tie-dye neon fish.
