Looking For The Snail And Found A Baby....

Exploring yes, but thankfully cautiously, stays near the bottom and close to the plants, it has doubled in size over the last week so I am hoping that it will be ok, the guppy and Molly fry are still small enough not to eat it but not sure if they will bully.

Aww that's good. He will get so big now. He is a lovely colour my platy fry didn't colour up at all, he was silver like his mum.
I had let one of my 3 week old fry out into the main tank and the 2 9 week old fry and they all hang around together.

Hopefully this will be the case in a week or so when he gets a little more used to the space, have just advertised the guppy fry so hopefully they will have new homes to go to very soon.

Aww that's good. Yeah hope you get good homes, it's so much more satisfying after the hard work raising them.
Mines were gone a few hours after putting them up for rehoming and she is coming back to get these babies when they are old enough! I am hoping my endler gives me some fry-that would be amazing!
 
Little baby Platy has made it through the first night in the big tank with the other fry, still mostly hiding out but has started to venture a little further, and the bigger fry don't seem to know he is there.

He will enjoy it so much, and will grow super fast now! My fish don't pay attention to the fry unless they wander far from the filter then they get chased lol.

The guppy fry are being collected tonight, I have kept 1, so that just leaves 4 Molly fry, 1 platy fry, the guppy I kept and the new ones from last night in the fry tank so perhaps now that there are smaller ones in the tank too he will venture out a little more,
 
My little guy is doing well and getting much bigger, he seems to be binding less and has made friends with my 1 older guppy fry that we kept.
