help i have a guppy with a fry sticking out half way.it seems to be stuck.its been like this for about a half an hour. any ideas on what to do?how can i help her?
Obviously your gonna have to help or the mother could die too. Do you have a turkery baster? You could try sucking the fry out into it or squeezing water towards it so it may dislodge it. I hope everything ends up ok.

There is a chance that the mother could die as well if the fry doesn't come out. You can try to help her by putting on a glove and gently squeeze her a little. Maybe the fry would pop out or maybe you'll just ended up frightening the mother. It's worth a try. Good luck!
thats what i did and it worked.i actually have a small net i use for netting fry and i got her in that.in her struggle to get out the fry popped out and it was swimming around.i cant believe the that the fry might actually live.thanks alot everyone for your help.one more stressful situation over and some good advice given and learned.thanks alot everyone i couldnt have done it without you.
Congratulations!
I'm still waiting on my little first time female to have her fry... My other female is probably about 2 inch long and had 3 fry at one time when she had hers ....lol
