Hi guppy fanciers,

What would you recommend for guppy fry ?

1. Brine Shrimps (Artemia) ; OR

2. Micro pellets ?

brine shrimps all the way. self hatch type.

Bro., thank very much for replying. If you could post some pictures of your setup and how do you do it, which brand are you using in Malaysia etc, I would really appreciate it. I am trying to understand more about this artemia stuff. TQVM Sifu. 😊

i stopped breeding guppies for a while now already, at least 2 years plus already. you could dig some of my old posts, i believe i do posted quite some pictures before.

the artemis brine shrimp we import from taiwan, can't remember the brand, but i bought for around RM150 to 160 per tin, about 425g, can last me for about 3-4 months each tin.

You must have went to great lengths until Taiwan but why did you stop ?

Wow the attachment looks fantastic.

I wish the poster, hopefully there is one, included the female fish next to the male fish. Females are really pretty too.

it's taking up too much of my time. i spent on average about 2 hours everyday for the water change, hatching and feeding of fishes.

also, i'm now breeding caridina shrimps instead =)

there are still plenty of guppies breeders around, my friends are still in this. only if you are interested.

prices varies from 30-50 a pair up to 300 a pair, depending on grades.

Oh ok I understand.

I am trying to setup an automatic water change system, so that I can spend more time enjoying the fishes than having to deal with the water instead.

Caridina shrimps for guppies too ? I would still like to learn more about brimp shrimp hatching and the best model to copy.

Later I might want to meet up with your friends but let me settle the entire breeding system first. Without a proper system setup and with more and more guppies babies on the way, I am already running out of space !!! Tahi already mahu jatuh, sekarang lintang pukang cari jamban.

LOL

Sifu, what is LFS ?

yeah, automatic wc system is way to go if you wanna breed guppies. as for the brine shrimp hatching stuff, you can try youtube, i learn from there too last time.

LFS = local fish store.

Guppy sifu,

I have 1 small tank of guppies which about 1 month the fish is nice and quite active.

Last 2 days, they not so active and die 1.

Possible due to i change new fish food or raining season, temperature go down?

Any master can advice?

Hi sifus,

I'm a newb to fishes.

My question is it possible to breed a pure strain gold/black moscow/blue moscow male guppy with a regular female guppy? Wonder what does each strain look like breeding with a regular female?

Hi all. Questions about water conditioner Tension Gon. I use 1mL of Tension Gon for my 15Litre tank. Do I need to use it daily or during water change only ya? Thank you 🙏🏻🐭

My guppies 👇🏻

i'm not sifu , but u use it only water change. dont change 100% water. can watch guides for fishies in youtube. i recommend Aquarium Co-Op

Hi anyone keeping guppy outdoors in a pot or box? Im doing that but they keep dying. I saw in YouTube some people kept like that also, not sure what is the cause.

Check. The water condition.

Chlorine poisoning?
Ammonia spike ?

Try to put gravels , to encourage growth of good bacteria.

need add bubbler?

how do you keep your plant so healthy? is fertiliser needed?

im also outdoor + solar oxy pump
last time didnt have oxy, only buy recently after they deliver bunch of baby



they sometime swim up to the floating tank ..

Hi! I'm a newbie to keeping guppy as a hobby... recently caught some guppies and would like to keep them in a proper aquarium. Someone gave me an old aquarium they are not using anymore and I notice a crack at the bottom of the aquarium. It's not leaking at the moment... Is there anything I should do to prevent the crack from getting bigger? Any advice would be much appreciated!
