Hi mr_br0kn_drmz

Welcome to the forum.

There are a lot of experienced fish keepers here who will be happy to answer your questions. Please post your questions in the Livebearers forum so that the people who raise guppies will see them.

Have fun and enjoy yourself on the forum!

You can either put your fry in a separate tank form the adults, or make sure there are many hiding places if you keep the fry in the same tank as the adults. By hiding places, I mean plenty of plants (either live or fake) and caves.

You can either feed your fry liquid fry food or finely crushed flake food. I feed the flake food: just crush it between your fingers as finely as you can. If you use the liquid fry food, do frequent water cahges and be careful not too overfeed as it may cloud up your water. You should feed the fry 3 times a day. Once the fry are older you can feed them baby brine shrimp.
