i have 3 female gups and i saw one looked realy big and about to burst so i moved her to the breeding trap and the nexted day she didnt look as big but another one did i think they are playing with me they are dark body females im not to keen on them i like white body female coz i can see the frys eye through them and can tell when they are about to have them anyways what do you think i should do?
also if i put a female in a tank of her own to have her babys will she eat they fry as she gives birth?

Dont put it in a breeding trap.It may just abort the whole litter.Just put it in a another box and wait for it to deliver.Better to let half the young get eaten then all the young die as the mother aborts them
