Expert Answer

A guppy’s pregnancy lasts 22 to 26 days. It breeds readily and matures early, generally at 3 to 4 months. After mating, the female gives birth to 10 to 120 fry 22 to 26 days later. She can breed again a month after giving birth, and because the cycle is short and litters large, guppies are also called million fish.
