Out of interest,what is the average price you guys are getting for your guppy's once you sell them on.Is there a market for them.

I used to breed guppies and sailfin mollies( golden,black,snow white and marble varieties) in South Africa.Each new season i'd start with 10 huge guppy females to each different guppy male.I had common snakeskins,black tuxedo's,scarlet tails,and sunsets..the red tail with yellow bodied guppies.

If i didnt scoop out about 200 guppies every day, within two months ,I would have been worried.When you breeding in three 3mx500x2m ponds...GUPPIES REALLY DO BECOME JUST NUMBERS.

I must admit i wasnt selectively breeding ,but you do tend to see the strong genes of the snakeskin coming through constantly.

No special feeding,just plain flake crushed up.Even the fry got crushed flake and algae on sides of ponds ,was a bonus!

I found i lost a lot of young to dragon fly larvae in my ponds!
