Guppies out growing net breeder

[Missy]

How large must the guppy fry be to be put with the other fish. I think I had heard 1 inch but I don't know if that includes the tail. Also, I have 10 guppies one month old, all vary in size, and two new guppies born yesterday. Can they all be in the same net breeder together?

with my baby guppies, i let them out when they reach 2 months. that's when they're too big to be eatin by other fish. but the new frys can be put in with your 1 month frys. i've done it myself.

well it depends cuz i jusr released my 4 five weeks old fry with the adults.... so far nothign happened. as long as they have a place to hide near by that shouldn't be a problem. if you have too many adults and you dun feed them regularly fry may be their food.

mashimaros right
i even kept my 1 week old
mollies fry with parents but
nothing happened.
p.s if you do this have a plant
or lots of onaments for the fry to hide

It's preety much 'if they can fit in their mouths then its too early' because they (adults) will eat them if they can get them in one bite

yes i think java moss is a good plant, cuz the guppy fry seems to love hiding in it, and the moss itself have alot of small spaces for them to hide in

Thanks everyone. I'll move the new fry into the net with the other babies and maybe in a month or so, I'll release the biggest guppy and see what happens.
