So, as some of you may know, I had a sick guppy. She was bleeding badly internally, and today, after the euthanasia, I had found dead moldy fry at the bottom of her QT. This drew me to the conclusion that she was badly frybound. You can go to the link below to read more. :)

So I was cleaning up the dead fry and fry-embedded poo when....

Surprise!
4 alive fry hiding behind the filter!
They look about mature, perhaps a bit below.
Now, I usually use my guppy fry as live food (

AHHH!

Sorry.
 
So here is mwah setup...
 
A 5 gallon tank,
bacteria-full sponge filter,
a heater set on 80,
some new sand and some old sand from my other cycled tank,
some Stringy Moss,
some river rocks!
 
I really hope they live!
 
Piccys coming soon!
 
Heads up, this will be a very slow moving journal as I am tracking the growth of the babbys. :)
 
Facepalm...
 
I'm reeally sorry on the progress of this thread. Later on today I will try to post the pic.
 
I should be ashamed of myself...those pics were taken with the Iphone, sorry they are so blurry
