Hey I am now on batch #3 of guppy fry all under a month old ntil tomorrow. I gave the 55g a good cleaning yesterday after being neglected while on holidays, when I was done I went outside to do yardwork, came back in and there were 30-40 fry swimming around. I said I was going to let nature handle this one but I just couldn't let them sit there like ducks on a pond with a gun behind a bush, soooooo I scooped them all up and they are now in a breeder net. 1 Batch swimming with Krib fry, 1 batch in larger net and new batch in the smaller. I HAVE NO MORE ROOM WAAAAAAA !!!!!

LOL, that sitting ducks in a pond was funny. WOW! How long did you do yardwork? Must have been a while if the female was able to produce 30-40 of the little ones, congrats sorta ;D maybe you can get a new tank from a yard/garage sale. or a thrift store, lots of people i hear find tanks and other things in them

Oh yes they will definatly take them when they are big enough but it's having the room for 3-4 months for them all until then LOL. I guess I will have to close my eyes with the next batch due in about 2 weeks if all goes on schedule
