Does anyone know what the limit is per batch, because I am now getting around 100 fry per time from each of them, and I have 8 various females producing! This is on top of the dwarf gouramis, pearl gouramis and angels, which are all breeding like mad. I&#8217;m also finding the occasional danios and black neons swimming around in their tanks that weren&#8217;t there before. If there is ever a case of being a victim of your own success, this has to be a good example! Since I only went into tropical last year, it&#8217;s been a baptism of fire for sure. If anyone wants a breeding pair and lives in the UK, let me know! original post: August 5, 2007, 11:11 pm timgautrey 2008-05-04 Answer no. 1 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=breeding-livebearers-is-there-a-limit-#2 the limit seems to be 110 for mollies, 70 for platties and around 30-40 for guppies. timgautrey 2008-05-04
