After a year of having fish, I finally got to see my guppy giving birth :D it was amazing! And so quick :) the babies are so tiny too, but I have no idea how she fitted that many inside her :)
 
Awesome I like watching that just make sure she doesn't eat her fry! How many fry? In first batch? Also make sure she is done Giving birth before putting her back

I think she ate quite a few :( I'm not sure how many fry as she dropped them all in the main tank and they pretty much disappeared straight away, there's so many hiding places :)

can't believe i actually got to see it! :) usually I know exactly what night she is going to drop her fry, but she waits til the lights are off and disappears behind the filter so I can't see her. I didn't know she was going to have them so soon, but when I couldn't see her in the tank, I started hunting in all the hidey spots and found her behind the filter. Because the lights were still on I could see everything :D it was amazing :D
