Strange female

[lanasfishies96]

My guppy gave birth a few hours ago while i was at work and ate them all. Now shes doing this.

Female guppies will eat their young after giving birth. Are you sure that all were eaten? There's a good chance a few survived and are hiding in plants, caves, and gravel! Your female guppy is likely recovering from the harsh birthing process and to aid with this, I'd recommend switching the lights off so she's not quite as stressed. Congrats on the fry!

She was in a breeder box

Her gills look really red.... can she swim or is she just sort of floating around?

If she was kept in the breeder box then chances are she's stressed out. This can cause the symptoms she's showing. Are any other fish exhibiting symptoms?

She's fine now and her gills aren't red

That's good to hear
