YEAH I have 7 baby platy's

[cougargirl50]

I went down stairs this morning to feed the fish and I took notice that my pregnant wasn't so pregnant anymore. And we looked in the tank and have 7 baby platy's, they are kinda trying to hide down in the rocks. I have NO other tank to put them in what can I do to, try and let them survive. I was going to just let the other fish eat them but now that I see them, I can't let that happen. :thm:
I thought of stopping while I was out this morning and getting some of that wort plant stuff. I have the fake stuff but Im going to get the real stuff. Does anyone have any suggestions of how I can keep some or most of them????

Java moss has worked really well for me--the fry can easily hide in there for several weeks while the adults have trouble getting even part way into it.

Java moss works great. You can also consider a breeding net.

Well, I went out and got a breeder thing to put them in, and guess what when I came home, I couldn't find any. So I really thing the other fish got them. :dive2:

But I figure atleast now I have a breeder thing now so I will be ready for next time.

I was downstairs this morning when I fed them and was looking back by my bubble wall and guess what I found one baby fry. He was almost breakfast for a danio, but I got him scooped out and put in my breeder cage. Now he looks all lonely I hope it will live. I want to go out today and pick up some of that Java moss stuff, and I guess something for it to eat. I crushed up very fine some flake food but it doesnt look like its bothering it, unless I tramatized it right now for moving it.
But out of 7 that I seen yesterday I got one. My daughter will be happy..... YEAH
