	Babies!!! We're Excited, but What the Heck?!?!?!?
houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	We have babies!!! The problem is today is the last day of school for a week. I was prepared to leave the adults at school, but now I have one delivering her fry as we speak/type. So what the heck do I do now? The school will be locked up, so I won't be able to come in and feed them. The temperature is constant (thankfully something is positive) So, I know how to deal with guppy fry in normal conditions, but for me this is not normal...Help!!!

Transfer the children and a small bit of decoration (i.e. plant piece). Take the water from the tank and take it home after the temperature is stabilized. If you do not have a heater, fill your glass jar and rush home ASAP. That is if your home temp. is stable.

EDIT: This is truly awesomeI have not gotten the chance to watch the miracle of life happening in the fish communityIn all my time of doing fish I have never witnessed the a fish actually giving birththe kids are also learning about life as it happens...heidi Last edited by hml at 04-Mar-2005 15:03 "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."

Ok first fry at school (adults ate the ones that were bornbut i brought them home anyways to finish having the fry) Then here I am taking home the adult fry, and floating them in the 29, and guess what? You guessed it...one of my ladies at home is having fry So I figure I am bound to have a tank full of fry by Monday Heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."
