fry lovers

Yep, They are in the main tank growing bigger now. I'll only be keeping a couple and the rest will be sent to the LFS or sold, I guess. They are cute and really pretty. Love the little guys.

What kind of fish do you have? and did you notice any that were bigger before and are now skinny? Post pics

Guppy fry born Saturday Night. Dalmation Molly Fry little over a month - guess about 4.5 weeks old and Black Molly Fry are about 3.5 weeks old.

How are your guppy fry doing?

 

[freshwaterashley]

2 - 3 week old platy fry. Play spot the baby!

Your platy fry must be getting quite big by now

 

[trustemedia]

Guppy fry are getting big. I thought I posted pics, but I must not have uploaded them all the way. LOL! Here you go, but this is a week or so ago. They are two weeks old in these pictures. So big already. And, my female cobra guppy is giving birth right now as we speak. I'm so excited!

 

[freshwaterashley]

Oh my gosh they are so big already! 2 weeks old? Your fish get big fast! What are you feeding those guys? Looks like they are mostly black.. did you have to move the dalmation and black mollies to let them out? I have 3 batches of fry right now all one day apart...

I actually did move the dalmation mollies to the big tank and then let these guys loose and then the swordtail fry a week later. Now, I got a bunch more guppy fry to put in after today. Oh my goodness. But, at least she finally went. I've got 2 that have been holding forever it seems like. I've been writing on the calendar so I can get their timing straight and know for sure next time. My cobra guppy came pregnant from the lfs a month or so ago, so she's long overdue and I don't know who the dad is, so they will be a surprise to see what they look like. Can't wait. Just feeding Tetra goldfish flakes crushed up into powder. The swordtail fry don't seem to be growing at all. They look brand new at 2 weeks. I really think there was something off about them. I did find 3 more fry in my tank and I have no idea where they came from. But, I got the three. I think these fry will be safe with the ones in the baby tank. I may keep them in the breeder for a week and then let them loose to be safe. Not sure yet. We'll see. I don't know why they grow so fast. Must be putting extra growth hormones in our water here LOL.

and, the female swordtail never got small, she just prego'd herself up again right away, so there will be more of them and hopefully they will be heartier.

 

[freshwaterashley]

My platy looks like a whole different fish I bought her pregnant and all not even a week later she drop these fries and a lot of them
