Fry growth

[aquarius]

i found a couple of fry in my tank, probably from my swordtail. i'm not gonna separate them from the other fish, i'm hoping they'll make it. anyone know how fast they grow? when will they be around an inch long?

well Ive had my swordtail fry for about a month now and they re about 2centimeters long. It depends on hat you feed them, if you feed them bbs then they will grow faster then just feeding them crushed flakes which is what im doing.

hey this is just a question but i heard like if your ph is high you get mostly females and if its low you get mostly males

i would defo say more than 1 month to get fully grown more like 3 but it takes around 5 weks for them to start to get their adult colours and for them to be sexed. have never heard of 1 month til fully grown mind
