Need help

If you do not plan on removing them and want them to survive make sure the tank has lots of fake or live plants and you feed the adults often (but not too often) so they dont get hungry and feel like having a snack

yeah I don’t have plans on removing them. thank you for that advice. I’m sucking up everything I can. Now what do I use to feed the fry’s? And when do I start all that for them?

Wow long delivery lol that’s good to know. I’m beyond excited and the fry are all doing great

It wont necessarily be that long but it might

You could buy special fry food or just finely crush some high quality fish flacks for them. Feed them about 5 times a day

i actually do have another question for you she is starting to chase the fry around and has eaten 3 of them so far should I remove the fry and put them in the breeder box that came in the mail finally lol and if so how should I remove them I don’t want her to eat anymore. I don’t believe she is finished she still has a swollen belly

 

[Kellya325]

I am glad she stopped eating them. How long ago since she last dropped some? The best way to remove the fry is to guide them with a net into a paper cup and scoop them out.

Okay that means she is probably not done

Oh, I forgot to ask, what type of breeder box is it? The mesh ones are best

the one I got is plastic with slits all over and it can either float or suction to the side of the tank. I don’t have a mesh one

 

[Kellya325]

I’m going to go on Amazon now and order a mesh one lol I still have more pregnant guppies lol
