Congratulations Hughessomefish. I always like a new fry drop in my tanks.

thanks oldman47 this is my first drop and she has only "let go" of two so fare how long should this take?

weeks! lol no i honestly dont know but im sure it cannot be to long? depends on the conditions i think, well either way oldman knows his guppys, but from a guess mine didnt take long and droped about 20...then a few weeks later anouther load!! is your female on her own or with other fish??

congrats! it only took my guppies a few hours to finish their drops. but it could take longer as i didnt know when they started. i have one that is about to pop any day now so im watching her closely so i can time her. hope all goes well! post some pics of the little ones!

A few hours is typical for the common livebearers. Sometimes it could take a whole day but not very often.
