Guppy birth

[Fish Buddy]

How long does it take for a female guppy to give birth after mating? I have one in a birth basket, but she hasn't given birth yet and it has been about two weeks! I know she is prego because she is much fatter than normal.

It takes about 28 days in average, but usually it depends on the temp. The higher the temp, the faster it will take, the lower the temp, the longer it will take.

makes sense The tank is currently at 72 F*, maybe I should raise it to 76
