Were Poppen Out Babies And Don't Know If I Am Ready...

[MrMagoo]

I have a 10 gallon with a 20 gallon filter. I have a molly and a guppie who just gave birth in there. They were the only 2 fish in there. After they gave birth last night I took them out and put on the bubbler. It has PETCO store green rock and some fake stuff to hide. Anything else I need? Please!

Put some plants in for them to hide in, although if your taking the mothers out it aint necessary

The filter aint strong enough to suck the fry up is it?

MIght be best using a sponge filter instead.

Well I took out the moms because they are known to eat the babies after birth from what I have heard. This morning on fry was caught in the filter thats why I put on the bubler. Around here sponge filters are not an option because nobody has them or can get them. What else can I do?

To prevent babies being sucked up by a filter you can cover the suction tube with any kind of netting. I have used bags from the fish store that are made to hold loose filter carbon.

An on nylon will work too i have used up many pairs for this reason and not others. 19yr old male doesnt need nylons to make his legs look fabulous, myhair does that quite fine thank you.
