I'm looking to breed some guppies in quite a small tank if it's at all possible. I have a 5 gallon tank setup, I don't have any other tanks to use and I'm not buying another tank for this project. So if a 5 won't work I won't bother.
That being said I have no idea where to start, is there a m/f ratio I need to stick to? increased temp? extra w/c? more frequent feedings? Do I need a seperate tank for fry? How many fry per batch are we talking?
I have a 9in JD and a 6in severum, they won't be getting feeders everyday, but I'd probably just split the batch between the tanks everytime the guppies spawn. I'd like to not have to grow them out, while at the same time I'd like them to be big/plentiful enough for this project to be worth it.
