hi!

i've got 10 to 12 feeder guppies fry and a couple of balloon mollies ones. my question is how many times should i feed them and how much of food should i give them??

also, how i identify the "gravid spot"?? can anyone describe it or maybe post a picture of if?

thanks! :)
 
your supposed to feed your fish whatever they can consume within 2-3 mintues, give em about 2 pinchs and then see if they eat it all. if they dont then you know to give them less, if they do you know to give them a bit more, but not much more, you dont wanna cloud your water, and ive never even heard of a "gravid spot" :thud:
 
i have molly fry and guppy fry. i feed them powdered flakes about 3-4 times a day. The gravid spot is a dark mark near the back of the fish.
