The pregnant guppy I just got a few days ago decided to drop her fry. It's is the first guppy fry I've dealt with. I captured about 12 fry and put them in my 10g nursery. I scooped the momma into a small breeder which I have hanging in the 20g community tank. Will she do ok in the breeder or...

Ok here they are at 1 week. I see a little bit of growth but nothing major. I see more color change than anything. Almost all of them have some sort of black on them now. Just a few are still translucent. I've seen one that we've lost on the filter when I changed it the other day. So we still...

I have a few lfs to visit this week, hoping to find one interested in the panda fry. I'll seek info on this too :good:

I got a new male on Thrsday (sunburst) He's been fine the tank so far, but tonight I saw a little discoloration just behind his head. He's not acting unsual. And it does not look like ich. The best way I can describe it is like a film, grayish is color. It looks as if I could just wipe it off...

Yay for babies!!

Would a lfs do that for me?

No, I'm in North Carolina. Shame!

Lol you can have some panda fry. I've got plenty.

I haven't figured that out quite yet. Hopefully, one of my lfs will want them.

My main tank is a 20g with 5 platy, 3 guppies and 2 others I can't remember the names but are not live breeders. I have a nursery tank that is 10g and currently has 1 red wag platy (~4 weeks old), ~40 panda platy (4 days old) and 3 ghost shrimp. I also have small breeder tanks for birthing. I'm...

Ok here they are, as requested :-) And finally a video where you can see them swimming and view their coloring much better. We have 3 ghost shrimp that we just added in there, and the fry are very curious. :-) Ok and the larger fry you see in the video is a red wag we discovered about two...

Do fry tend to take after mom or dad or a variety? I'm new to the whole fry thing, sorry. My panda platy gave birth 3 days ago and already I'm seeing some definite markings on a few of the fry to indicate they'll look like mom. Seems to me that this may be a little soon to determine color, but I...

I honestly don't know who the daddy is. The only male in my tank for the last month or so is a red guppy. I did have a long fin platy in there before, but I think it's been too long for him to be the father. It'll be interesting to see how they turn out. I can already see some black on the tails...

Only have a few pics of the fry... But I did get a few videos of the births!! Video1 Video 2 Video 3 Video 4 Fry in the rocks Hiding fry
