So my guppy that was pregnant had its fish things......they were still attached to what i think was an egg....and they didnt really fit out of the fish...So now the fish has what looks like blood all over its insides....and is still pushing stuff out.. So sad . I dont know what to do

If it looks like she might die, maybe assist her if she's still pushing things out. I've read of people gently pushing on the belly down towards the birthing canal(kinda like a massage) and out to help her pass whatever is blocked. Keep her in very clean water to help her recover and to make sure she gets no infections, make sure she's not with any males that will harass her and not cause her to rest up either. Also see she if she wants to eat. I know my females will be VERY hungry after giving birth(mostly because that hormone kicks in that makes them not want to eat before birth) so maybe feed her some food to get her energy up again. Giving birth is very stressful for any creature.

How is she now.

 

[evaDsIcixelsiD]

Well....she has passed. I guess she just wasnt supposed to be a mother. But on a lighter note.....just found one of my guppies in the breeder had 15 babies in 15 minutes....thats pretty freaking quick. But yahoo for having lots of fry!

Sorry for your loss, congrats at the same time on the new arrivals.

 

[evaDsIcixelsiD]
