Big Enough Now?

[timmystood]

Hi

My guppy fry are over a week old now so are they big enough and strong enought to avoid the filter inlet if I remove the tights (pantyhouse) from it?

Thanks

They should be okay. How strong is your filter? Just normal size for a small tank, or are you really overfiltering? Either way, they'll most likely be fine.

The filter is in the lid, so obviously was designed for the tank so it's not overfiltered. If anything, it might be slight under-filtered - but not enough to make any difference.

I've removed the tights (pantyhouse) now and so far none of them have got suck up (I think their too big too be sucked up now anyway - they've grown sooo much!)

I've counted 14 for the last 2 days, so it's 4 more fry than I originally thought and i'm confident of keeping about 10 of them alive...

THANKS
