Molly About To Give Birth

[martin_jones]

My Black Molly is about to give birth (again).

The first batch of 6 fry all survived.

The second batch of 8 were all eaten by the other fish.

We want this third batch to survive, so would it be best to put the fry into a net once they are born or just hope they don't get eaten. We don't have space for a fry tank unfortunately.

hi,
depends how much room you have, if you have room for a net put in some floting plants,and when she gives birth they will mostly be in them,then you could scoop them in to a net breeder. hope it all works out for you,donna .
