Hi all, I'm just newly registered here, and found this site from information on http://pub64.ezboard.com/fboroniaaquari ... =969.topic, where pagasus NZ had a link to you. I have some cold-water guppies that I've had for a couple of years, and I mostly give the babies away to the local pet shops. I wouldn't mind to get into breeding some of the more beautiful ones, but suspect i would need to invest in a water heater for that type of carry on ? and, i was wondering what size and how many tanks i would need to get into breeding for selling locally?. I heard some people put the fry into alga jar size containers ? is that big enough ?? will i need to get out a small mortgage to finance lots of tanks ? inter-breeding isnt a good look, so surely you'd have to keep all the sisters , brother, mums and dads seperate so they don't **(&(*&( with each other. There doesnt seem to be much information on cold water guppies, does anyone know of some info about them? I have a cold-water leopardskin and have had some beautiful males with fantastic colours. They breed well too. but, are they just tropical guppies that breeders have dropped the temperature on ? How did they get turned into cold-water guppies in the first place. I have to keep the room temperature snuggly for them in the winter, otherwise death is iminent. thanks, curiously yours, angie.
