Fry!

Haha, well i've read lots about keeping the temperature stable and what not. But surely in the wild the temperature at night varies from the temperature in the day! It cant be THAT much of a big deal otherwise the population would plumit.
They seem to be happy and i dont think ive lost any, its hard to count though. 16 at last count but theyre so tiny and its hard to see them against gravel.

I'll keep you updated with pics so you can see them grow up :D
Thanks for your help
 
Oh and another quick question!
Do i need an air supply in the fry tank?
It's getting kinda akward as im trying to grow BBS which need an air supply, and i only have 2 outlets. I tried a splitter but for some reason only one split was getting any air.
And also the fry tank is on the other side of the room to the pump so its kinda hard getting an air supply to it anyway.
If it does need an air supply how many hours a day would be the least i could get away with?
 
wow cool! and great find haha. they look like gold dust mollies.
 
The other female platy is pregnant, she isnt huge, but definetely pregnant. The male is being really 'aggresive' and is chasing her 90% of the time. Does this mean shse almost due, and should i move her to a breeding trap?
 
Heres some pics of both females; it's hard to capture the belly well but they are both plump.
The male sneaked into the first picture, still trying to bother the female xD
