Guppys are the horniest fish it's easy to breed them.

I find it much harder to not breed guppies, they are the bunnies of the aquatic world.

My guppy had 12 fry today! The father is a red snakeskin and the mother is a yellow girl. Can't wait to watch them grow up!

Thanks a lot 😃it has been so helpful. My guppies had fries today morning. Love from India

I think you did great. Keeping that camera steal the way you did is something many people don't consider. I appreciate you keeping it still. It makes watching the fish look normal while you're teaching. Preciate it. And you know bloopers are always a hit!

WANNA KNOW MY SECRET TO BREEDING GUPPIES. ? MUSIC PLAYS*

those black guppies look really nice!

I'm JUST getting into the guppy thing so I thought your video was pretty helpful for me thank you.

Finally! ..The Secret! Thank you sir. :)

I set up a 40 gallon breeder to give breeding guppies a try. I put 3 males and 8 females in and planted it very heavy with various plants. I just noticed one baby in the tank but that is it. I guess the others didn't hide well enough to avoid getting eaten. I searched the local fish stores for java moss but no luck so I ordered some from amazon along with some frog bit floating plants. Hopefully my plants will continue to grow in and I'll have a better survival rate in the future

I loved your energy and positivity in this video. Thanks for making this vid btw because it helped me and a ton of others out a lot 😄

deffinatly nice looking guppies!!!!!!👍🖒👏

Would love to see a video about how you setup your plumbing system.

Ty for sharing!

cool video thanks for sharing

I like your honest view on culling as you explained it far better than others. I had an incident with my very first batch of fry and as I was desperately trying catch them from the main tank to move them to the nursery, I wasn’t quick enough and to my horror, had to watch 1 of them get eaten. Some might call me a snowflake it taught me that I am not cut out to use them as feeders. So my method is to let nature deal with it so what I don’t see I don’t worry about. The thing that gets my goat is those that deliberately kill just because they don’t like the colour or they are not completely perfect. As you and I know, provided their are no health related problems, the public will still buy them because they just want a pet Guppy and in my experience, couldn’t care less whether the colouring or size is the be all and end all of life. I have a horrific story of advice that was given to me by a breeder that I will share in a different post because this one is long enough already, of what I should do with a baby Guppy that had an injury to his spine and they’re proud, horrific way of killing it. That particular Guppy is now perfectly fine as the injury disappeared but if I had gone ahead with his solution, I don’t think I would never have forgiven myself.

Hi from France, thank you love yours videos and yours tanks 😍 peace ✌

Loved the video. Not my first one but I did subscribe today. Totally agree with the philosophy, from the cycle of life to alternate living quarters for the fish. Of particular interest was the Java Moss and sponge filter. I'm getting in some dwarf sag this week to plant in my 40 breeder and 10g Marina. The 10g will be for guppies. Both have Seachem Flourite black stone. Seeing this video makes me think Java Moss is way better. Not sure what to make of that yet.

3 years later I found you and I love you! Lol awesome videos and explanations etc good stuff Michael

Love the content, format, and informal style!

I breed guppies in 5g and 8g tanks or buckets. Once I have established enough algae and plants i no longer do regular water changes. I remove the males once the females are pregnant and put them in 1g jars and 2.5g tanks. I want a 55g to keep my males in, hopefully soon. I have very fast growth rates and hardly ever lose any and their color is magnificent. My PH is 7.8 and i keep the tanks around 76deg. I feed them flakes 3 times a day and brine shrimp 3 times a week. I keep them with cherry or algae shrimp to clean up after them and they are also breeding very well. I always found smaller more frequent feedings result in faster growth. If i could feed 5 times a day i would but its just too much to manage.

Thanks for the videos i have been learning a lot and am eternally grateful.

SINCE WH3N BREEDING BUBBLE GUPPIES WAS A BIG SECRET LOL OMG FIRST TIME I SEE A WALMART TOILET PLUMBING PIPE SETTING KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK😜🌈🦄

It helped me a lot thank you

That's the best way no waist.thanks for showing us.more breeding videos please

Lots of knowledge here, thanks!

Nice care info but I have a quick question, I’m maybe getting a guppy breeding tank next week and I want to know what is a better substrate sand or gravel. I think sand cause it’s more softer and the guppy fry will be sitting on very soft sand, but gravel is hard and it will be stressing I think for the guppys. So I want to hear your opinion on what’s better

Thanks for the content. I recently got two different male guppys one from a Petco and another from a pet smart. The tank from petco said assorted fancy males and the tank from petsmart was named tuxedo male. My question here is should I get two females for them in the same tank? And what type of females best for them.... am a bit lost because I have two different males and am interested in breeding them.

Michael please see this... what are you using for the floating plants on top? I am a new hobbyist here trying to put together a set up.

Michael, great video as usual. Question. Are those 20 long aquariums in the beginning part of the video on the left? And if so, what type of top do you use?

hey dude, what are the rarest gups in Australia, would you know ? thanks steve.

Black panda guppies luv them wow

Question for you. I recently moved 3 of my female guppies from my 30 gallon to my 10 gallon tank. I’m 90% sure they are preganant (large belly, black spot on their underside is growing). Is this okay for them to give birth? One of them had one last night but it was immediately eaten (I’m getting more hiding places today). Any advice on how I can increase my chances of a larger yield? Do I need a bubble stone in the birthing tank? Thanks. (I have around 9 female and 8 male)

Keep going as you are doing things and your opinions as well I loved watching what you were doing and talking about just great thanks

I love this one .

subbed! love the content!

My tiger Endlers(bought 2.2) both dropped same day then 3-4 weeks later they dropped ALOT(20 each) on the same day

First video I’ve ever watched of you, ngl the intro took me off guard and I’m not sure how I feel about it because you’re actually chill 🤣

The bloopers are so funny 😂

I like those tanks with the pvc pipes

I know this video is a few years old but I have just discovered the channel. When you said $4 per gallon I almost fell of my seat!! I have searched everywhere but the cheapest tank I can find in Australia right now works out to be roughly $2 per litre. (roughly $8usd per gallon, or $1.50 USD per 0.44 gallon) 😭 I just spent $200 AUD on a 100 litre tank (26 gallon) and that was off of ebay... From a retail store you are looking at $400-$1000 for the exact same setup, even buying second hand the prices are insane.

Thank u very very much

And awesome video

Thanks

8:12 was the word you trying to say "price per pound"?

Great video sir

great video. I'm still jealous of though blue grass guppues. if you ever decide to ship I want a trio!

Nice info bro, keep it up!

My water has a PH of around 6.7 to 6.8 so I'm assuming that's ok for guppies or should I add crushed coral?

Thanks a lot it helpful

I am planning on getting at 28l tank (6 gallons) and probably getting 4 guppies to go with it. I’m not sure what heater to use with my 6 gallon tank to get it to the 72-80 degree temperature that they need. Does anyone have any recommendations, that are not that expensive? Thanks a million!

SUPER HELPFUL VIDEO

I need to get a 5 gallon tank set up to pull the mother but I still get a decent amount of fry just letting my 20 gallon do its thing. I do have a decent amount of females and I have them breeding in softer water. My fathers are yellow or red tiger endlers (mostly yellows gotta thin out the yellows a bit) and the mothers are yellow cobra tail guppies

Have u ever breed a platy and guppie together they don’t look bad at all saw a few video

Wow technical and philosophical answers. Where do you keep the Oscar that you feed the fish to be culled to?

Great information, I'll send you an email soon! I have a 29 gallon and would like to add some nice guppies! I love those black panda's, I have never seen them before! Now I know what to do with the few I have that are somewhat deformed! :-)

Great video as always

You the King Guppie Breeder the Gurroo of awesomeness 👌

Good video

I’m taking my first shot at breeding guppies now

always love your videos! keep it up

if ur in vancouver might buy and start breeding guppies

What kind of aquatic plants do you have it your tank?

Lovely guppies...

Your guppies are so beauty

can you do a video on how you do your water changes

hello.. i NEED HELP!! i have guppies mystery snails and shrimp in one of my tanks that im breading.. for some reason one of the pregnant guppies has a wound on her side looks like she got bit but there is nothing big enough in there that could do that and also the only fish in this tank right now are pregnant females and they are all about to give birth so not alot of movement out of them. i tryed using this salt in the water . was alittle scared to do this because of salt in a wound im sure thats no fun.. but everwhere i looked it up i couldnt find anything other than aquarium salt can help heal fish.. there are worms in the tank from the substrate that are small and white but i did some research on them and do NOT believe they are the arrow head dangerous ones that people warn others about and i also read they are normal with substrate and they work like cleaners kinda like the shrimp. sorry i know this is alot but im alittle worried about the fish and dont know what to do at this point... the other day this fish was totally fine.. another issue one of the pregnant ones that gave birth soon as she was done giving birth well like a day or so later i woke up and she was on the bottom of the tank and the shrimp were eating her with a similar wound on her side.. ive researched everywhere and NEVER could find anything about CHERRY shrimp eating fish. so im VERY confused right now and hoping you have some advice if not thats ok worth a shot. thanks

Would you be able to sell some of those blue grass guppies? They look awesome!

Hahaha guppies are like rabbits are t they hahaha I had 2 that turned to 20 and then 100 and before I knew it I had tonnes of them hahaha great video michael and some very cool info too 🤗🤗

After it releases the babies do you scoop it out and grow it seperately?

I have a 36 gallon tank fake plants tho I have probably 7 to 8 molleys and 5 gumppies males on both and female do u think they will all bread I don’t know how to add pic or I would

Wow you’re south jersey I live in Cumberland county Cedarville

Do you think loaches would get along with Cory catfish and guppys

thanks

I hit the like button, great job

Oh it's a good idea

Can they be bred in a community tank?

My guppies dropped at least 30-40 fry over the past 2-3 days and I am literally “drowning” in guppy fry. I’ve separated the fry from the adults and have them in their own tank right now. I’m wondering how long before they are mature enough to start breeding? I want to avoid this as I don’t have enough room for more fry, or adults for that matter. I’m not able to determine the males from the females yet as they are too small, or my eye sight is too bad. But I’ll be able to see the sex when they are a bit older. I’ve separated the adult males from the females and want to do the same with the fry when I can see what sex they are.

Ok

superb job mike

well, lift yr game dude, ill check back in 1 week, see u know by then please, !😀

muito bom

Newbie to guppies. Little back story- my daughter brought home 2 guppies a male and female from school, so they were the cheapest simple gray colored ones. The male disappeared and the female, who gave birth to 11 fry 2 weeks ago just died today. We are down to 7 fry and I'm worried about raising them. Any definite helpful advice about breeding or inbreeding in my case? Also, how can I tell the males from the females at this young of an age (2-3weeks)

I have many babies which my fish store will take. I have one little guy/ girl with s crooked tail that pretty much keeps to himself. I'm thinking I better keep him as he may be picked on when they all mature. Opinion please

Hi, just for reference (no im not a fish abuser) I breed GUPPYS at 69 degrees (during the winter that is what my house is at) and at a ph of 8.4 out of my tap. They breed fine and show great color... the real trick is to get the fish from petco/smart and make them live long enough to give birth... from then on I work with the fry that love my water.

What treatment do you use when you quarantine them? Great video & fantastic Guppies & Platies there mate!

My mutts bred and there are maybe 3 males of the original fry drop (about 10 fish). One resembles leopard tail, one some weird red/brown colour with blue flanks (it looks kinda like a Red Tuxedo) and one that is similar but without blue flanks. p.s. this is probably boring to you but to me - a 12 year old boy - this is somewhat significant.

BEST VID I LIKE SUBED AND TURNED ON NOTUFACATIONS

sub gained.....i am gonna try guppies soon

I was yelling cost effective but you didn't hear me anyways lol

7$ per endler at my lfs had 1 fry because community ate the others lol. Put the most Prego guppy in a breeder box so.. once she has her fry most should live. Hopefully

So... I caught 23 frys... the temperature rose because outside it was 96 Fahrenheit, I removed the male, he has annoying the pregnant one. And then 1 after another. Some got eaten, by the mom and other fish. Now I have a third small 20L tank with 6x 2month old guppy fry. And in my big tank I have a small plastic container with the newly caught.. I really take good care of them but.. if I don’t sell them when they are bigger.. what can i do? Besides buying a new tank🤣🤣 also the first tank. What floating plants do you have!? I need those

can u work out a way to ship to florida im just trying to get some of the guppy strains from u

Ty 4 the helpfull info i sub bc of it

Are there any breeders that sell triples or quads? (1 male and 2 or 3 females)

Love your profile

good video keep up the good work

Hey how much is ur cheapest guppy

Will guppies over breed in a tank or will they control themselves?
