tehoice, you mentioned that you kept your breeding pair in a plain tank. How about when the female is about to give birth? How do you separate the female? One of my female just gave birth but non of the fries survived. But I figured that the female also gave birth prematurely... saw one of the fry, dead upon out of the female... Now I have another pregnant female, separated from the rest. Yday I scoop the female out and put into another tank but I guess it is not a good way, which might stress the female out. Any tips on improving?

all of my tanks are bare tank. You can either allow the mother to give birth in the tank, buy a breeding box. (for reference, look at picture)

or

separate the mother out to a smaller tank, put in a breeding net, or something that can separate the mother and the fry will do. no picture at the moment.

you can try fish depot, they often carry pure strain guppies, ask them how much are they selling of those pure strain guppies. fyi, some of those are supplied by us.

Honestly, i wouldn't want that even if you give it to me for free. but different la, it's a good start though.

Also, even if you find those nice male guppies cost you 5-10 bucks each, what's the point of buying them if you cant breed the pure strain? unless you are talking about just keeping guppies in your tank for fun (not pure strains). buying those is even more wasting money tbh.

i see, depending on your ultimate motive. just some random guppies? or pure strain guppies, all beautiful same strain guppies in one tank.

this is an old picture, just for reference, took from my previous sales thread of the breeding box.

i sold some guppies to several forumers from lyn, ask them if they are satisfied and happy with what they are getting for the value they paid.
all of them got "extras" fishes from me. ask EternalC, how many fishes he got from me for the small amount he paid for.
