Hello Iām new here, thought Iād try and get some advice from the experts.
Brought my sons 28l tank, brought some guppies, put them in, with a few neons too.
Really enjoying this, so I got a 60L tank, got a few more guppies. Noticed two guppies were being chased around, so I look into this, found out them two were female. So I put them in my 28L and the males in 60L
Now Iāve got a 110L tank, again, my son has got a new 240L. So I will sell my 28L and keep the two tanks.
Sunday I cleaned out the 28L tank, ready to give it to a friend. I was going to wait two days to put my now four females in, my 100L When I noticed little ones hiding behind a plant! Seven of them, must of just been born, after a hover, water change, stuff moved! I took the four females out put them in my 100L tank. I still didnāt know what one was the mother! So seven fry in tank on their own and doing well
Problem Iāve now got, how do I know if two of my other females are pregnant? Iām sure they are but I donāt want to put them in the fry tank but also I donāt want to leave them in the main tank. Iāve read about breaded boxes, not sure I like that!
Iāve put loads of plants in the female tank, some real some plastic. I suppose itās best to just let nature take its course.
Would you put my two āExected pregnant femailsā in the fry tank, or would you just leave them? The fry swim all over now Cos no other fish in there, if I put the females in there they probably get eaten.
