It is so cute. You are likely to find a couple more. When my platy had babies I found one and put it in my breeding trap I was sure that there were no more of them but I found found another one that night and then two more the next day.

You're right, found 2 more. Time to catch some fry.

Haha just how it happened with me. lol The strongest and healthiest ones out of the bunch are usually the ones you will find later on. I guess that is why all the ones I found are really healthy now. I had a balloon molly baby who survived two days and when I found it it had a huge chunk missing out of it's tail it grew back so fast you can't even tell now just a few days later.

I thought I had only three fry. Turns out I have four. Don't think there's a fifth one.

If you move the net very slowly, it won't scare the fry away and you can corner the fry against the glass.

They are so cute! They look just like my platy fry, It's funny, that is exactly the amount I have found alive out of both my batches of livebearers. (balloon molly and platy)

I spoke too soon again, I found two more, bringing the total up to 6 fry rescued from the community tank.

Getting a group shot is going to be difficult though.

Congrats on finding more. I just love watching mine play follow the leader with each other in their tank. lol

I added a snail to the tank.

I also have a mystery snail in my fry tank. They are good at cleaning up.
