i think my guppy is going to give birth doon i put her in the breeding box because i thought i could see a tail hanging out though im not expeirenced please help please give me lots of advice thanks!


i'll be looking forward for some fry!
 
I had fries for my very first time and at the local fish store, they told me to keep the female inside the breeding box and only take her out 2 hours after she had her firt fry.
You should also get a net that is like a breeding box but the water is always moving inside. if you need help about feeding the fries, i posted a question about that that already has many answers.
Good Luck with your fries!
 
If you really saw a tail hanging out the particular fry you were looking at was probably born within a few minutes of when you saw it. All his brothers and sisters would usually come within a few hours of when things started. The fry will be very small and likely will be hiding in the spaces between individual bits of gravel when first born. The only easy to see part is the eyes of the fry because the rest of the body is almost transparent and will blend with the background. An hour later you will probably find them hiding in any very small space in the lower patr of the tank. Up against the glass where it meets the gravel is an often used hiding place if there are no fine leaved plants for hiding. The breeding box may or may not contain any fry. It depends whether you noticed one of the first or one of the last being born.
