 Guppy
is a small colourful fish that almost everybody knows. It could breeds
and adapt to enviroment easily. That's why most of the people think that
Guppy is only a tiny cheap fish.
But it was wrong, because this little colourful fish has it's own fans organizations namely IFGA ( International Fancy Guppy Association). What amazing about
Guppy is the colours and patterns. Because even It is very easy to differ the male and female of Guppy. The male has smaller body with patterns and colour on it combine with long and wide (flag) tail, and the female has bigger plain body with smaller tail. Guppy is kind of fish that breeding by Ovovivipar system (the eggs are keeps inside the female body and the babies come out when the time has come). It takes about 35 to 40 days for a female guppy to keep the eggs before they were born. The other things that make guppy very insteresting is to mix-breed the different stream/varities of guppies to create new beautiful patterns.   |
the expert could not found the same colour and patterns combinations between
two guppies. The other thing is the heritage, because it is difficult to
have high quality guppies even from the high quality parents.
