Joined Guppy's

[Kizz]

Well Went into lfs today to get algae wafers for plec ended up leaving with a new 35l tank and 4 guppy's When i was looking at the guppy's i spotted fry in the tank and all the females that were there were pregant so i chose 3 and a male and set off home set up new tank took media from existing tank let it settle doen usual climitize etc then put them in just went thro to check and theres fry everywhere !!!

The one i'm worried about seems to be joined to another they seem to be joined by the top ones belly and lower ones back only thing is that the lower one looks like it's dead ? Will the fry die ? Should i catch and let it live or just leave it in the tank and see what happens

The only fish in the tank are the guppy's and 1 red wag fry

These do appear from time to time, and I've only seen a couple in 20 years.
If one has died then it will surly resualt in the other one dieing
How ever you do some times get a parasite where one survives off the other main fish.
