Does she look like this?

 

[Guppy Breeder]

Yeah the dots just a little smaller though

I say she's in her first stages of pregnancy. Wait 2 weeks you might have babies

 

[Guppy Breeder]

OK thanks any thing special you have to do with the fry besides put them in the floating mesh bag

Um yes Actualy. It's prefered but you don't have to do this. It's usualy beter to raise the babies in a separate tank that has the heat on 80-83 degrees ferenhiet. This raises their metabolism and makes them grow faster. It worked wonders on my fish, but then again I had swordtails. But the mesh idea is fine, just remember to have a lot of hiding spaces so she doesn't eat them all. Wat are you going to feed them?

 

[Guppy Breeder]

My plan was to feed them some of that first bites stuff and/or crushed flake food

Yea that sounds good. I used crushed flakes. So are you looking into breeding guppies? It's an interesting hobby, rewarding I'd say

 

[Guppy Breeder]

Yeah I have a pregnant one now. I just have to figure out what I will do with the hundreds of fry. I think I might sell them if its legal.

It's legal. If its her first time she can get up to 85 I think, but some of them will die before they are adults. You could sell them. I'm giving some of mine away but keeping some to breed with.
