I have bought female guppies before but never had any fry show up but 4 days ago I decided to buy a female guppy as a friend for a Betta in a five gallon tank and today I noticed about 7 fry swimming around and I was stunned, so how should I raise these guys and gals the only empty tank that I have handy is a .75 gallon can a raise a couple in this or should I let them stay in the tank about half of the five gallon is covered in hornwort so I think they will survive but I don't want more than 2 adult guppies in a 5 gallon with a Betta so can a raise a few or all of them in the .75 gallon with 50% water changes every day and 100% water changes every other day? Until they get about half an inch long then give them away to Petco or a friend with a fish tank

And should I raise that plant matter stuff that they eat and I also have bloodworms on hand or should I feed them crushed up flakes what is there diet as a baby this is the first time I have had fry and I want it to be right
 
Sorry that I keep posting over and over again but I am a newbie to this kind of stuff do the fry have to have cover In a tank if they are the only fish in there because the handy .75 gallon just has sand and nothing else but I do have extra fake plants can I use these or should I leave the tank bare
