water temp for fry

[mrspughster]

I have set up my 10g for a nursery. I have about 20 guppy fry so far today. What temp. does the water need to be for them. And how long do I leave them in there before I move them to the 55g?

Thanks.

The temp should be the same as a tropical tank (around 76 degrees). Leave them in the tank until you feel comfortable moving them to the 55 gal.

I keep my guppies in un heated tanks, where the temp ranges from around 72 in winter to 66 in summer. They grow a little slower, but they live longer.
