giving birth

[luke_85]

I have a pregnant swordtail in a community tank with angels, black widdows, clown loaches. Once the angels see little fry swimming around they will eat them but when they realise they are coming from my swordtail will they try to eat them as they are coming out and would that stress the swordtail too much? This is probably a newbie question but i needed an urgent reply.


Thanks

i dont really know how to anwser your question. the fish probably get stressed, but it will be over quickly. no visable damages will be seen.

thanks as long as they dont take an accidental bit at her belly

swordtails are super hardy imo. they dont have any delicate fins. even without the long fins, they looks great since they're colors are so hot.

good luck. btw,why not keep the frys
