I have like 30 3-4week or so fry. This morning i noticed one of my females had also dropped about 10-15 more. Now im in a rush to get more space for them all. I had been looking on craigslist for acouple weeks and found a guy selling two tanks, 1 stand and a box of supplies for 17 bucks. He listed the tank sizes as 24 by 12 and the second is 12 by 10. Im assuming hight is 12 on both not sure. But i think its a 15g and a 6g. Im suppose to pick them up on sat. I will seed them with gravel and water from my other tanks.

I already have 4 tanks but only 2 of them are suitable for the guppies and im out of room. Lol MTS has hit me in a big way. I have been doing very frequent water changes like every other day until i can move them.

After i get the new tanks set up then i will have to try to figure out how sex the older fry. This is my first drop and didnt expect this many to make it. I did find out that my guppy adults dont eat their babies. I had plenty of time to get them to their own tank. Its just now their own tank is not enough.

Those gups sure do produce a lot of fry. If need be, you might look at azoo palm filters, 25w visitherm heaters and big rubbermaid containers to house the fry until you can sell them.

Yes i did think of the rubbermaid containers. I have a 3 year old that i would have to figure out how to keep out of it. I will have the new tanks saturday so that should ease up alittle. But i know i will have many many more fry to house soon. But after this weekend i should be able to have a boys and girls fry tank set up and a unsexed tank. Plus i have the adult tank. Eventhough i have been working 7 days aweek for the last 3 weeks i have kept up my water changes.
