Hi guys, ok as i said i have bn fry noticed about a week ago that the male was fanning like crazy in the upturned flowerpot and managed to see eggs
today i noticed two babies upside of my guppy breeding trap, i managed to catch one and its now in the breeding trap.....
question do you guys think it would be ok to catch the rest and keep them in the breeding trap tonight and tommorow until my vieja is collected, as shes in my fry tank at present,,,
I kepp noticing the angels are trying to eat them, but they are so fricken quick they bolt off and all you see is a blurr

I once went to 'save' 3 very large old swartz cory I saw on Freecycle and the tank they were in had what looked like a hundred Bristle Nosed littluns of various sizes and the water was like a swamp!

The corys are living out their retirement in my big tank along with my 4 'middle aged' ones. I can't get the sight of those poor BN's out of my mind but as murder is illegal there was nothing I could do but leave after a few words

BN fry are quick little things and are good at escaping from potential predators. If you have lots of hiding spaces then practically all of them should be fine, but of course there is always a risk that a few will get eaten so it depends on whether you are happy with that. Of course moving them asap would be ideal but leaving them shouldn't cause any major problems.
