Both my guppys are pregnant (dont know if any have given birth yet) and Im sure the corys have laid eggs but what I have noticed a more intense "hunting" style by the swordtails..... they go into the coconut house and sunken ship I have and really go about scavanging for everything, I do know and have seen the swordtails going through plants to even get to snail eggs, stuck under leaves. I bought a Aquahome today but wanted to know how do I go about saving fry (if any) without stressing the guppy.

Inside the coconut house I have seen little white balls whenever I clean the tank, should I then just try removing them and bputting them in the aquahome? and when exactly do I put the guppy females in the aquahome.

Thanks from a fish-father to be :)
 
the gravid spot of the female guppy with get really dark and shhe will look like she swallowed a pencil eraser. the easiest thing is to buy you a floating breeder and use it because it will prevent the female from eating them. they dont cost but bout 5 or 6 dollars but are well worth it. As far as the eggs i wouldnt know what to tell you. it is also better to move the female a few days early to reduce stress on the female.
 
Are the little white balls fuzzy, or white/clear? You may have some fungus on the cory eggs if they're fuzzy.
