Fancy Guppie Breeding!

Oh wow! You do have a lot! I have a 20 gallon main tank, one ten gallon, one 2.5 gallon, 2 one gallon, and a couple of bowls. That should be enough right?
Lol, yea, I think so! Lol.
Yep, we sure are! I'll be sending the money toward the end of the mo. if that's okay. Got another whopper of an electric bill to pay, lol!

Aww, glad to hear the little ones are doing good!

Yeah, she probably does feel better...she's probably glad to have all them babies out!

Tammy, I picked out your babies tonight. Just boys I HOPE! It's hard to tell, but I'm getting better at it.They are excited to get to their new tank and out of the bowl I bet! Lol.

As I said above, Kimmie had 8 beautiful and healthy babies about an hour ago.

One of my glass shrimp has eggs, so I put her in a baby box with some plants.

Found a great new treat for the babies. "Baby Brine Shrimp". They love that stuff! I think they will grow faster with some meat in their diet.

Tonight I cleaned out the bowls, and moved two 5 week old females into the mother tank, moved the males (Not Mel though...) into the 5 gal. and got a new mother. Still no name, not yet. I'm thinking "Pearl" though, she is shiny white/yellow/green/blue. Kinda dullish, but the male babies should be BEAUTIFUL!!! I like her. She's getting along well with her new fishy family so far. Eating well, and swimming all around. She looks due in about 1 1/2 weeks or so.

Mel is really growing up! Mini and Mel will be 5 months, on March 11th! Wow, it goes by fast! He's already mating with the females. And showing his pretty tail. He knows he's hot stuff... Lol. He's a handsome one. I'm trying to get a good pic of him to post, I'll keep trying and hopefully put it up tomorrow. Sydney made pretty babies, I wish I still had her...

Aww, thank you! I'll be sending your money order next wk.

Don't worry if there's some females in there...it's no big deal.

They'll have a big ol' 55 gallon tank to hang out in, so they'll probably be shocked when they go in there, lol! We've still just got the 5 Neons, the old Black Skirt Tetra and the one little Peppered Cory in there. I'm going to get some more Cories 'cause I feel bad for the one, as there really should be 6 of them. I'm not getting anymore Black Skirts though. Actually, I'm totally surprised that one is still alive figuring it's so old. It's tank mates died a while back, but this one still keeps going. I was thinking about giving it to a friend of mine who also has Black Skirts 'cause I feel bad for it being the only one. I'm going to get more Neons. I was thinking a tank with a bunch of Neons and Guppies would be gorgeous! I was thinking of adding some black Neons and some Blood Fin Tetras or some Rummy Nose too (if I can find some...there's a fish shop here I haven't been to in a while...it's under new ownership and I hear it's much better than it was before, so I may check them out if Petsmart doesn't have what I want). I think that would make a nice, pretty, peaceful tank. I'm wanting to change my substrate to black at some point too 'cause I'm really tired of the white.

I'm gonna let the Guppy babies grow out some more in my 10 gallon before letting them into the main tank though. Then I'm going to rehome my Black Skirt with my friend and add them after.

Oh yeah, they love brine shrimp!

Pearl sound like a nice name. Glad she's doing well with her new family.

Ooh, you got a berried (momma with eggs) glass shrimp! Some of ours were berried, but we never got babies out of them 'cause we didn't separate them. I'm waiting for our Petsmart to get the Crystal Red Shrimp back in, but so far they haven't. If they don't I'll have to find somewhere else to get them. I'd really love to try a planted tank with shrimp, but have never done a planted tank before. We'll see.

Yeah, post up a pic. of Mel if you can...I'd like to see what he looks like. I know how it is though, fish don't cooperate with pics well, lol!

Congrats on Kimmie's babies!

Cool. That would look awesome with neons and guppies! K, as soon as I get the money I will send them. but it might have to wait till the 6th still, cause we are moving. I got a pic of Mel and Pearl. Thanks! I'm going to put videos on photobucket so you all could see them too. Excuse my dad burping in one of them... Lol, he was in the next room over and didn't know I was filming. I guess I forgot to say "Quiet on the set!!!" Lol...
Wow! You must have like 300 fish!

more like 200... Lol... although, not really laughing... ;)
