Granny's gone and done it again

Yes and it’s a challenge getting guppies to NOT breed. Worse than bunnies I tell ya!

What if the tank is unheated? that might slow them down... but can they survive? they're tropical?

So I guess that answers my question... no, there is no one to take care of you and you are busy taking care of everyone else.
Do you have some fans? Set a big bowl of ice in front of a fan and it really helps cool things down.
Or, call someone in to fix the dang ac! No ac, no food!


haha! We should be roommates. My snoring would lull you to sleep every night!

I set up a fan through the dish window to pull the cooler air in. We had to do an extra in-depth clean because the Girl Scouts are renting the camp this week, so we had to empty fridges and put away the stacks of things that accumulate. I also had them wiping smudges from door frames, cleaning under appliances... I just kept seeing dirty things that I’d hate to see in a kitchen I was renting.

Fluttershy keeps stealing Marilyn’s nest, so I rounded up 8 of her own eggs and found she had added two more to Marilyn’s nest. But she wouldn’t sit on cold eggs, so Marilyn is warming them all up and I’ll add them to Fluttershy a few at a time.

Hope those Girl Scouts leave it as clean as they found it.
So much work for you!

Guppys like the cooler water, no heater required . they like the alge and planted tanks although they will eat the plants. 68 degrees if I remember right. They will eat their babies if its not planted well Marbles are a good choice for them to hide in or take them out to another tank. BUT good luck finding the ladies. Fish store dont want you to have pairs. You stop buying them when you breed them.

This is a BIG ol IF so probably shouldnt mention it but I have 2 tanks. Been wanting to take the smaller one down and set the 30 gal. up leaving an empty 15 gallon long. Is that big enough Alley ?

oh and they are short lived. A yr. maybe. Thats what happens when they breed easy.

One year they used a ton of our food “on accident,” so I also had to make sure everything was either organized and labeled or totally locked away.

ooh, 68? I would have to have a heater in the winter for sure. We were at Petco when I saw the guppies. I think there were females, but didn't pay much attention... to busy watching the male with the beautiful yellow tail. Males don't fight, then?
