Hi all, one of my friends has a small guppy tank and is at the risk of getting overrun with fry very quickly, I know the obvious answer is to seperate the males/females, but they aren't prepared to purchase a second small tank.
So, years abo, back in the day as it were, we used to keep guppies all year round, and reduce their temperature to 18'C over the inter months to preven breeding, and rest the stock, then increase the temp as daylight hours became longer for a 'breeding season'. however, after seeiing how delicate guppies seem to have become nowadays (from all the line breeding etc) I'm not so sure...
What temp would you recommend (from experience if possible, I don't want to kill her fish! ;p
Cheers!
