Can My New Fry Go In With 2 Week Old Guppy Fry?

[smellie92]

hi,
my guppy had 14 fry 2 weeks ago and now i have a different guppy and molly that should be dropping any day now.
i was just wondering if the new fry would be okay in the same tank as the existing guppy fry?
cheers.

Should be fine

They should be ok if it's only 2 weeks difference.

They'll be fine.
The usual rule is if they can't fit in their mouths they'll be ok

I wouldn't rely on the mouths size thing. Some of my guppy fry were blonde and although they were way to big to be eaten by the others, they kept being chased and nipped on. One I had to put in a breeder box for its tail to recover as it was gone missing/reshaped to lyretail type. I think they confused them for food for some reason.
