*gasp* I have fry!

[Acrobit]

One of my guppies dropped her fry today! I don't have a breeder net that fits in the tank so they are all hiding amongst the rocks and decor in the tank. Gah, I never thought somebody could get so excited about fish!

There are roughly 10 - 20 fry and the adult guppies don't bother them much - I have seen them chase after them a few times but DANG! those babies are fast!

I'm going to be getting some pictures, but I'm having one heck of a time taking them! Thought I would start this thread up as I'm going to be posting the pictures anyways.

CONGRATS i cant wait to see some piccys of the babies!

make sure you feed the adults just a bit more to keep them from wanting a snack on the fry , but still dont over feed

That's what I did when I noticed the fry. I was hoping to get a pair of mollies this week but with my fry I'm not going to chance it just yet!

I'm not getting very clear pictures, but here's one I've gotten so far...

CONGRATULATIONS! Good luck with the fry! My female guppy, Flora, loves to snack on fry . . . even her own . . . even if she's in the breeder net. Everytime I discover that a female fish delivered fry, I have to hunt them down or my other fish would eat them!

Thanks everybody! They are so darn adorable. I'm expecting even more fry in the coming days as my other female is also pregnant.
