Well to cheer myself up over the loss of pearl I went and did some spending. I got; 3 foot tank with filter heater pebbles and plants, 3 new females vanilla, Chrystal and Ice and 4 new males Tiger, spot, grey and floppy only floppy wont be breeding hes a beautiful old fashioned veil tail but his tail is too heavey and hangs vertical from his body sad but it happens hes from a private breeder who takes unwanted guppys to the LPS and they either sell them or feed them to others so he came home too:) vanilla also started having babies in the bag and at last count there were 16.
Total 3 tanks
7 Females
5 Males
30??? Fry
5??? pregnant

make sure you do a water change tomorrow.... and watch them closely, you don't want to get an ammonia spike... They sound great cant wait to see pictures.

a new tank sounds great, hope you have a lot of fun with it, but watch the ammonia.

I assume you are cycling your 3ft tank at the moment... it will look great once you have all your fish in there!!! How are your new ones going?

sounds great, its very exciting setting up a new tank. Problem is you just keep wanting to get more tanks  |
