My platy had babies today. I took them out no idea how many I lost count. But I was going to put them in my 10 gallon tank which is setup with 4 guppy fry that are about half an inch long, they barely have their color yet, but I was afraid that their mouths might just be big enough to maybe eat them? is it safe to put them together? Thanks -Amy

If you think that they might be eaten, don't mix them together. You can place them in a container till they grow up a bit & them add them in with the other 4.

I had someone tell me they'd be ok together, but I'm keeping a close eye on them. And I had another surprise this morning when I got home from work. My sailfin molly had babies too I think I need a bigger tank! yikes! I didn't scoop out any of the sailfins yet because I had added more breeding grass to the tank with the assumption that she would be having them soon. I'm waiting for my 5 gallon tank to cycle so I can put some in that too. What's the most fry I should keep in the 5 and in the 10 gallon tank right now? thanks
