There is a difference in pH and sg. For marine pH is around 8 and sg is 1.022. So difficult for the guppy to adapt to it immediately.

Probably that's the reason why albinos guppies can survive in the marine water.
great experiment...now must continue using females, and then having them drop fry in total marine environment.

question. how do you tell that the albino's swim bladder is resemble those of marine fish (and what is the difference compared to the grey eye guppy??).

The size of swim bladder is bigger and longer compared to grey eye guppies. I've sliced the crownfish one and compare with the guppy.

It's the same experience as we pry open the live crab or poke the triange part to kill it before cooking. If you been to Japan, and happen to see how to chef prepare sashimi from the live fish, you will......

Default The Secret is Out!!!

Guess by now most of you should be back from a good lunch. Hope you have a good meal...before I tell you the secret of raising guppy in marine tank.

Raising guppies is very stressful to some of us hobbyists;
- They died without informing you in advance
- They don't grow big ready for the show
- The finnages and colors and patterns are not as expected
- etc....

Every year this time, it's my wish to help you de-stress! Why - so you can prepare for Aquarama better.

The secret of raising guppies in marine tank is out, check this link;
http://www.arofanatics.com/forums/sh...t=free+guppies

In sixteenth-century France, the start of the New Year was observed on April 1st. It was celebrated in much the same way as it is today with parties and dancing into the late hours of the night. Then in 1562, Pope Gregory introduced a new calendar for the Christian world, and the new year fell on January 1st.

There were some people, however, who hadn't heard or didn't believe the change in the date, so they continued to celebrate New Year's Day on April 1st. Others played tricks on them and called them "April Fools". They sent them on a "fool's errand" or tried to make them believe that something false was true. Most April Fools jokes are in good fun and are not meant to harm anyone.

Today each country celebrates April Fool's differently.

Same here in Guppy Talk at Arofanatics, Happy April Fool's Day! Don't be mad or angry if you have upz my points, don't zap me for this. Try harder next year!


Happy April Fool's Day!
