Another interesting tidbit---female guppies can retain the male's sperm (even after she's had the babies) for up to 6 wks. Don't remember where I read that at... Guppies are one of my all time fav. fish... SOOOO Friendly and purr-ty! (and easy to breed...can create your own color variations!) My 50 gal. tank use to be home to many, many guppies...unfortunately they caught something and despite the Rx...I lost them all!![]()
I just bought 3 more...(2 males, 1 female) going to try it again...
Once a female Guppy is pregnant, she can release babies about once a month for up to six months without a male in the aquarium. So your Guppy females may continue to release babies, even if you don't have a male Guppy now.
Still working on finding the rabbit info that I posted earlier....
