Holy Cack! Babies

[Helen G]

OMG!! OMG!! Ihave just been to check on my poorly lil guppy (septecemia) and there are 2 babes in the tank!!!

What should I do, I'm about to go out and get some meds for her.

Should I move them to the main tank, or will they be infected too??
Would the meds hurt them??

Please help!!

No, don't put them in the main tank just yet. Have you got a breeding trap? If so put them in there. If you put them in the main tank they are likely to be eaten. If you haven't got a breeding trap, a pint glass with water from HER tank in there.
