What Temperature should i keep my fish tank for guppys?

Question

I'm going to get some guppy's but i don't know what Temperature it should be.

Answer 1

Mid 70's is best.  Warmer temps are better for fast growth...and shorter life.

Cooler temps = slower growth but longer life.

Suggestion:  Allow female to drop young in a 2-5 gallon tank with heater set for temp of around 80 degrees.  After a couple months, lower temp to mid 70's.

Answer 2

between 78-82 keep a thermometer in the tank to check it and make sure its right it can differ a few degrees but try not to have it go from 78 to 82 in like 10 minutes or it will shock your fish.

Answer 3

Guppies are very flexible with temperatures. You can go anywhere from 64-82 degrees. 64 is a bit too cold, but they CAN live in it. A good middle in that range would be good, somewhere in the mid 70's. Breeding tanks are always kept at 82 degrees by the way.

Good luck :)

Answer 4

It should be 72°- 82°. And u should also add a little salt to the aquarium too. A heater would b a good idea. With guppies you can get quite a lot of them so you can decide how many you want but make sure to find an  employee that knows a lot about the fish and ask them how many u can buy before u go on a shopping spree of guppies.

Answer 5

they are tropical fish so it needs to be around 80 degrees

Answer 6

24c

Answer 7

Around 25C(77F) is ideal, they can survive a pretty wide range, 20-30 C, but either extreme is a bit stressfull for them.

Aim for 25C, but anything close to that is fine. (22-28C)
