The formula most owners repeat—counting a fixed 28 days from mating—is largely wrong. A guppy's actual gestation period ranges between 21 and 35 days, heavily controlled by water temperature! In this video, we explore how temperature shortens or stretches pregnancies, why environmental stress delays birth, and how the gravid spot and isolation behavior are your true indicators. What you will learn:The Temperature Factor: Why a warmer tank (28°C) speeds up gestation to 21 days, while cooler water (22°C) stretches it past 30 days. The Stress Delay: How tank changes or predatory fish can delay birth by several full days regardless of your day count. The Square Spot Sign: Why a gravid spot turning square-shaped and sudden isolation signal birth within 24 to 48 hours. Join the discussion: Which indicator do you rely on more—day counting, or the shape of the spot?
