Yes. its weird about 5 days ago the 2ed female went mia i seen her 2days before that then gone no body no nothing. I expected about 20 to 40 it is that females first birth so I'm expecting about a hundred or so on the 2nd she is still young. It's day two I do not see any casualties I've been feeding them three times a day crushed up flakes Frozen baby brine and crushed up bug bites. I will have to be careful and get them out as soon as they are a little bigger because I already have snails reproducing like crazy and even though it is a 55 gallon the system can easily overload with so much new life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of bacteria will increase in the tank with the amount of guppies you have. So I would say leave this first batch of babies until adulthood, then sell them off to your local fish store.
