Baby Guppys

[jonny-5]

Ive just noticed that 1 or 2 of my guppy fry have a slight kink in the tail end of there bodys,just wondering if anybody thinks i should be ruthless and cull them or let them grow to see what happends? There approx 2 weeks old and in a 5 gallon tank with only Guppy fry in,i only use Nutrafin Aqua plus water conditioner and it has a fluval 1 sponge filter

Let them grow. Chances are they will even out with age. I know a lot of mine have. Just keep the water very clean and maybe add a little salt in.

hmm i wasnt sure if to add salt or not due to some of them being only 2 weeks old at most

I found a baby gup in my aquarium back in january and put it in another tank with a baby sword of mine, I had salt in with them from the day I found them which couldn't have been more than a day or two after they were born and they're fine so I'd say it woulnd't hurt!

No, salt shouldn't hurt them at all. Just make sure you use aquarium salt.
