thanks, would you advise it if i put her in a net thing or just let her give birth in the tank and see how many fry survive...btw i have many hiding spots for the fry to hide in and i have other small fish who will not pose much danger to the fry
 
i wouldnt put her in there yet i would leave it a couple more days and its up to you i dependes how many you want. what else is in the tank?

ok i have 5 neon tetras and 4 Barbus pentazona pentazona
 
the tiger barbs and sowrdtail will proberly eat quite a few of the fry. so if you want fry i would put her in the breeeding trap in a couple of days. how big is the tank? and how many tiger barbs do you have?
 
your tanks to small for tiger barbs and sowrdtails i would get red of them and get
1 honey gourami
6 corys
and up the neons to 6

the tiger barbs only grow up to 5cm...they are also suitable (i read this on several webpages) for tanks 50litres +...or are they just lying...oh and this guy who ownes an aquaarium shop said i could have 20-30fish in my tank? isnt tht too much
