Hi, I have a guppy fry that is about 1.2 cm long and 1 and a half months old. I have been curious when to move it into my 10 gallon tank. I have a cory catfish, dwarf gourami, and 2 male guppies in there already. When is it safe to move it into the bigger tank? I want to make sure that it doesn't get eaten by the dwarf gourami, and maybe the other male guppies too. Thanks!

The general rule is 3 months old...when they are big enough not to be able to fit into the other fishes mouth
 
I agree with the jasurf21. Typically when they start to show color and are big enough not to get eaten they will go in the main tank.

Next time, try to make your title a little better. Some information about the question you are asking will get you the best results.
