Pregnant Guppy 46Th Day ?!

[Guppy-keeper]

A lightly planted tank is not a great place for livebearer fry to mix with adults. I use mostly java moss as my cover and have a huge clump in tanks where I want fry to do well. In a 10 gallon guppy tank, that clump uses up about half of the total volume leaving the other half for the adults to swim around in. That tank produces huge volumes of surviving guppy fry. In tanks that are lightly planted or have little cover, I never expect to see a surviving fry but once in a great while one shows up anyway.

I cant find any live plant in my country. The pet stores are very poor with products. I wish i had that java moss, i love it .

you don't have to have live plants if your using the plants just for cover for the fry. any bushy fake plants would do. i was in my lfs earlier and was thinking about getting a plastic java moss ball. didn't bother though as i'd rather the real stuff. you could use rocks and pebbles for cover (most of my fry are always found under a set of pebbles i bought) live plants are always best but anything that provides somewhere only the fry can get to is ok.
