ok with the gambusia yes there was more fish in the tank with her like male guppies but i watched the swordtail breed with her right when i took her out of the 5 gallon and the male was black, the babies they didnt look so black the look like they had take the green swordtail gene like the black swordtails first son. i thought it over and yes i did mix the fry and i know that 1 of the gambusia had crossbred with something because the only blue guppy i had was a dark blue guppy and the females were yellow and the male was blue i knew something went wrong in breeding but i didnt know what

the female platy got killed by the baby gambusia when they grew up, but yes the tanks were covered, my blonde tux was suposed to give birth 2 days ago and shes getting so pregnant that i think when she eats tonight she might eat enough to give birth like my cream cicle molly did a few days ago.

or some frozen stuff you can defrost in Luke-warm (why not Matthew-Warm? Mark-warm?) water and rinse through a fine meshed net. That would fill her and her tank mates, offer a little extra protein and maybe fill their tummies so that they don't hunt many fry. :)
