Ok so my girlfriend has told me I am going to buy guppies and breed them unfortunately :/ so how do I breed them, I have a 50 gal tank that consists of a large rainbow shark, common pleco, chinese algae eater, betta, 5 cardinal tetra and 2 cherry barbs. How will I breed them and what is the best way to do it with this set up ? Thankyou :) all input is welcome :)
 
Put the guppies in the tank. That's about all it takes. I started with four guppies, I have 50-100 in my tanks, and I've sold 100-200. They're quite prolific.
 
If you want to just make guppeis then throw a few males and twice as many females in a tank, add floating plants and you will have guppies.
