Guppy Has Given Birth :)

[challdog]

my guppy gave birth to around 15 beautiful fry this afternoon.
they are an amazing Clear-rainbow colouring
ive decided to let nature take its course, and keep them in the community tank.
i believe that this way, can naturally sort the 'deforms' from the healthy ones.


a few more hours on...
about 6-7 fry can be seen darting around my moss.
they seem safe

do guppies breed all year round??
how long before they drop fry ?
from fertilisation to birth ?

cheers

The gestation period for guppies is about a month and they drop fry non-stop year around.

right.
so the fry are currently living in my parents 'fish-less' tank
and my question is...
what size do i put them back into my tank?
