[fry_forever!]

They will be a week tomorrow. Thanks.

Sorry to get off topic, kribensis12.

they are big for one week old!! my guppy fry are 1 month old and they rnt as big

 

[kribensis12]

It's okay fry_forever.

biokid101: The reason for that is because molly fry are born larger than guppy fry, and you may not be feeding your fry the right foods to promote growing. My fry are about the same size as yours fry_forever!

If they are from the same mum, i wouldn't let them breed because you will probably get deformed fry. But you probably know about inbreeding already.

do all petsmarts do this? a brand knew one is opening right across the street from a petco sparking a petco vs.petsmarts war this should make them lower there fish prices on both sides.

 

[kribensis12]

I doubt their prices would lower just because a petco and petsmart were on the same street. They are both owned by the same company.

really? i didn't know that but that makes no sense what so ever there right across the street.

Wrong information there Kribensis.
Petsmart is a publicly traded company with the stock symbol PETM. Petco is a privately owned company and is not traded on the stock exchanges. There are a lot of similarities about their business models but they are far from the same company.
S&P rates the stock PETM as a HOLD while Reuters rates the stock as a BUY.

A Petsmart is opening up 2 minutes away from my house.... This will be the second one in Canada.

 

[biokid101]

WOW! nice i have to drive 45 minutes to get to petsmart and petco

Okay, we're hijacking this topic severely...

Wow, I was completely unaware. I was told by my older brother that they were owned by the same company. I never followed through to see if he was correct. These fry are growing like crazy. I would have released them into the tank, but I am afraid that they will get sucked into the filter.

I have lost 2 of the fry. One, I put down. He had a large tumorous growth on his tail, so I threw him out. The other I found lying dead in the breeder. The other ones look perfectly healthy though! I have my fingers crossed!
