Plenty of water changes as well mickey 2009-01-08 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=can-you-help-me-with-a-questionabout-baby-guppys#4 I currently have over 200 baby guppys. My only advise I can give is this, as soon as they are born I place them in a seperate tank for them only. The adults tend to eat the young if there isn't lots of oxygen weed for them to hide in. Their tank only has corner filters, no air stones, plants or electrical light. There are also snails in the tank to minimize the build-up of waste and algae. I do not change the water until the tanks' fish are large enough to be placed with the adults. Crushed food flake and minced Ox heart is what I feed them twice daily. dekramitz 2009-01-10 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=can-you-help-me-with-a-questionabout-baby-guppys#5 We used to keep guppys, and when they were about to birth them we would put the MOM in a netted area at the top of the tank, and after she has them put her back in the tank. and raise them in the netted area until big enuff to put in the tank with the rest of the fish.
