First Guppy tank in 30 years | 6 comments (6 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

Babies!! - - One Loss :( (none / 0) (#4)
by sfguppy on Mon Oct 13, 2003 at 05:04:05 PM PST

Update all - - got home last night to find that one of my ladies had given birth. I found 6 fry - - I was able to get 4 of them into a birthing box thing that I bought with the aquarium. There are 2 more babies that have wedged themselves between the walls and the gravel - - I don't want to risk trying to dig through the gravel after them for fear that I will crush them in the process. They still seem to be able to move around, so I hope they swim into open tank so I can get them into the nursery. I did wake this morning to find "Ricky", one of my males, dead - - I guess the ammonia toxicity is building. I have another femail whose gravid spot seems to have gotten much larger and red around the edges. I moved her into the delivery room part of the nursery in the event she goes into labor. I am going to a aquarium store to see what I can find to help with the ammonia problem. sfguppy
