What are these guppy babies2007-11-24 23:40:35

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?

Answers:

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.

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.

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.

well as far as i know of guppies mate with guppies just like dolphin's dnt mate with whales. and i've never heard of guppy parents ever eating their babies. one of my boyfriends females had babies about 2 weeks ago and they all seem to be there.
