bubbler? u mean an air pump?

Guppies are very basic, put a 3:1 female to male ratio, in a properly filterd tank with everything a normal fish needs, and ur gonna get babies.
They breed like crazy. I would do 3 males 6 females in a 10 gallon (2:1 ratio).

Well if you want to feed a few red belly piranhas on a budget look into buying raw fish and shrimp from the grocery store. They are much healthier than most feeders.

I'll second that. Breeding your own fish actually takes a lot more time, space, and effort than what they're worth if you want to do it right and make sure your feeders are healthy.
