GameCzar Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 Here's a couple, they're a bit tough to get pics of in the quarantine tank (aka a plastic tub). The white fellow is Ivory, and you can see Ebony hanging out in the 2nd picture. His fins are near perfect! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameCzar Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 We're going to piggy back our latest project on this journal because lets be honest, its ALL about the guppies. Both pots have water lettuce, water wisteria, duckweed, water sprite, and pothos. The round pot has a big amazon sword, the square pot has the water lily that was in our 3 gallon tank (it was taking over). We'll be adding moneywort and rotalla today too because we have a bit extra. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarista Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 In a bit of sad news, though, out of the 8 guppies we got from Petco on Wednesday, we have 3 left. They were fine the first couple days, and then within a day we lost 5 of them. So no more guppies from Petco for us. We lost the platinum one, Ivory, but we still have his brother, Ebony. We have two of the females left, but sadly lost both the mosaics. I know fish die sometimes, and I know big box stores are a gamble, but man, the last couple days have been rough. We really needed those surprise fry to lift our spirits, so they came at just the right time. I THINK they came from one of the females we lost, honestly. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameCzar Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 We managed to get a few pics, the orange-ish one we've taken to calling Lady Bug, she had a rough trip as she was shipped with another female that was in pieces when we got them. Ebony seems to like her a lot 🙂 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griznatch Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Sorry about your guppies! I'd give you some of mine if you were local... I can't seem to slow the little buggers down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiapeach88 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Some of my new gals to go with my 3 big ear purple mosaic boys. I also have 16 Japan blue babies as well. Working on getting my algae gone in my boys tank. I think I got their culls, I but don’t care this s Sherbet male is gorgeous. Loving seeing. Fellow guppy lovers. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameCzar Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 @Georgiapeach88 We have two females with that exact power blue black spot coloring! We think the surprise fry came from one like her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiapeach88 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Aww yeah will be fun to see what all these ladies poop out color wise since they were at shop in mutt tank. But I think she gets them from a local breeder. So she had similar males to mine she was keeping in her display only tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I've been there and I feel for you. Fingers crossed for your survivors and the babies! I've only gotten 2 guppies through QT since July. I have five more in QT right now and honestly, I'm scared to look in their tanks every AM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarista Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Annnnnd..... just like that, another female dropped fry. We netted them into the grow out tank with the surprise babies. Our estimate is a total of 25-30 babies right now. We saved as many from the main tank as we could see. Have to check again once the tank calms down some. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
