Ok! Ok!...just calm down.... Take a deep breath... many have done so in the past......(& many will do so in the future) What you need right now is plenty floating plants and (depending on what else you got in there) a breeding tank - not to move the female into, but move the babies that you are able to see..... prefferably not the floating type, but the net breeding trap, as the mosquitos are smaller than your average live bearer & will simply fall through the holes.... Good luck.

Yea.... actually not a good Idea to move the mom while shes giving birth, but since you've already done it, don't move her back again...

ok heres my status: mom and dad r 2gether in the 10gal again, and they look pretty happy . mom still looks preg so ill scoop the babies out as i see em. the 4 fry were upgraded from a cole slaw container to the 2gal tank, which has plants and gravel, rocks, and ill put a shell in 4 them to hide, theres also a baby snail w/ them (yes, i found ANOTHER snail!). i fed them crushed up flake (as crushed up as i could crush it lol) and they seem 2 be nibbling on it. they were also nibbling the plants, so i think they got food. me and my mom r gonna pick up some fry food this week. -heart , ally86ozzy

my fry kno wut flakes r! FOOD! no more fry. YET.

my fry like the flake, they go CRAZY when i giv it to them. their mom always wants more food, thats just from being in labor, right? and the daddy chases her, but whenever he duz that i tap the glass and he runs away, lol. Fry r cute little surprises, arent they?
