Starting over from scratch with guppies

 

Back a few years ago I started a guppy pond/ tank & I really didn't know what I was 
doing when I got so over loaded with them I just simple got out of them & traded them 
in for goldfish & now that it's been a couple years since guppies I want to try it again.

But this next time do it a lot different & not have it get out of control like it did the 
last time, this time I am going to get some pg females ONLY & let the fry grow up &
see what I get from them & sell-trade off the 1's I don't want & keep the 1's I want.

This next time I get into it I'll have all the setup going like it SHOULD BE & not all 
1/2 assed like when I 1st started the last time I got into it & didn't have a clue about 
what I was doing, This time I'll know what & how I want to do with raising them.

# 1 keep the BREEDERS separate males from females, this way it's better to choose 
what breeders you want to work with in a 10 gal tank 1 male to 3 females only &
this will give you better colors & different breeds of guppies to sell or trade off.

# 2 keep PLENTY of tanks on hand EMPTY cause your going to NEED THEM 
you need your male & female tanks that you breed with, you need birthing tanks 
for each female you breed, so you can tell what females had what fry with the male  

# 3 Your going to need PLENTY of FRY TANKS on hand for each batch of fry 
you have & each tank has to be marked to what female they came from or better 
yet just keep the female with the fry till they get old enough to see what she had.

Yes, like I said B-4 this next time is going to be a lot more different than what I 
was doing the last time I was raising them more vigilant of what I start up with 
to what I can come out with from what I get from the breeding guppies I breed.

10 Things You Should Know

I've been doing a lot more research on the hobby than I did the last time I got 
into it, I have a BUNCH of videos on the matter on all sorts of the subject of 
raising guppies & breeding & growing fry, as far as selling them, I'm not there.

If I have to get rid of any of them I can trade the 1's I don't want to the fish 
store & get new 1's to keep new bloodlines going to get new colors & genes in 
order, & the store won't mind trading good guppies for feeder guppies to breed.

I don't want to start raising them till I have moved to another place where I 
can have a better setup to have the tanks I need to have to breed guppies the 
right way to get a stronger breed of guppies & then try my luck at selling.

Right now all I can do is hope pray & dream about what I want to do in
the future which I have a list of things I want to do if we are blessed in 
another place, but for now I'm just learning all I can about a lot of stuff.

List of aquatic plant's with videos

The info I put on this page will be everything I have watched &  have followed some key things they talk about in raising plants I tried a few years back & had " some luck " in what I had & lost a lot of plant's at the same time,  so I got out of the guppies & what plant's I had left for a few years, & started watching videos. For the past 2 years out of the fish hobby, I've been saving up some  of the videos I've been learning from, as I start a new journey in  raising aquatic plant's I would like to share with you, this 1. b-low Water Gardens 101   < These videos is very useful in growing plant's rather in a tank or pond, it all resolves to the goldfish - koi fish & the reason for that is cause they have the HIGHEST nitrogen level. MOST IMPORTANT Video EVER Made  This has to do with why  it's important to do your research on the  nitrogen cycle for plant's & fish at the same time, B-4 you start a tank...

Aquarium plants I have & more plant's I want

pogostemon stellatus octopus- Aponogeton crispus- Giant Jungle Val Rotala indica- water wisteria- Amazon swords- Hornwort- Crystalwort This is just SOME of the plants I have & the 1's I want to start growing Most will be stem plant's that grow from the substrate & I want them to grow as big as I can get them B-4 I put them online for people to buy, I'm not interested in selling a small portion of the plants I grow. I have the tanks & ponds that I can grow good size plant's to sell & that's my main focus in growing plant's is to sell to people who want the MOTHER PLANTS, I will have more than just 1 of each plant so I won't run out & have others growing to take place of the 1's that sell. I have a plan on how I want to make this happen if things change in the future with the economy, so this is in the process of being worked on with getting the things I need to get it started, so it won't take too long for the plant...
