Lol too many guppies

[Guest14017]

Okay so my tank is totally overrun... I found a lady who will take these few. There are babies of various ages all over now and the boys are battling and it's all not great. Hopefully I can move a few more of them. These are bad fishies!!

They're very beautiful! I hope you're able to get it under control!

Glad you found someone to take them!

It's hard to catch them and I didn't want to give her ten billion - but I happily gave her these few. Will need to get rid of some more but one step at a time.

Catching fish can be a burden from time to time. They're too fast or they've got too much hiding spots...

I guess, you'd be overwhelmed if you see how many fish are swimming at my place. But if I'd try to get rid of them, I'm sure there is enough enthusiasm for it.

Well I also have a 55 gallon tank and a small outdoor pool with goldfish... But the guppy tank is the only one completely overwhelmed with fish. But I'm working on it!!!

My 29 gallon guppy/platy tank is overrun with guppy fry too. I put some in with my turtles but they just ignore them. A neighbors 8 year old daughter took 6 of my platy fry that had grown to adulthood but no one is interested in free guppy fry.

You could get a few pike topminnows (Belonesox belizanus). That would take care of the extras.

Maybe your turtles got so annoyed by so many guppies (What? Guppies again... ?) that they'd like a different kind of fry for a snack...

Had that issue with my mollies years back, didn't eat much fry and at one point the tank had over 50 and it was just too much. Lucky I was able to find those homes.
