Aquarium Advice Regular
My boyfriend and I have been talking about breeding guppies for his oscars to eat. Yesterday we went to the LFS and picked 3 females and 2 males. We got them home and put them in a tank that we are cycling for one of his oscars. I noticed that all 3 females were pregnant. One of them looked like it was going to pop, but I figured we would have a few days to a week or that the stress of the move would have made her abort it. So we went in the other room to sit by the fire and I read my book about guppies. (The are really interesting fish..) I came back in to look at the tank and saw a little worm thing swimming on the gravel. It took me all of 10 seconds to realize it was not a worm but a fry! I started yelling "She had a baby!". My bf came running. We counted about 13. It was the funniest thing ever! They were only in the tank for about 2 hours! I doubt they would have any chance if they had stayed at the LFS. It was quite exciting! The only problem is we need to move them out in a week so the oscar can go in... He may get some good eating...
If anyone has any tips on keeping guppies it would be very welcome!
