Killer Female Guppy

 

The killer guppy female has been isolated into a netted breeding tank I had and is inserted into the main tank, the guppy is actually seeming to like it as she is not looking stressed or swimming about, she seems totally calm and just gradually swimming about. Despite all this am not taking ant risks and putting her back into the main population, i will try and return her to the shop.

Other Female Guppy

The other female guppy seems to be ok, its eating all leftover food and foraging about in the gravel at bottom of tank, she seems to be ok on her own and not causing any problems.

Pregnant Platy

The pregnant platy is still cautious and hiding at the bottom of the tank and just coming up for food then disappearing again, seems she got quite a shock being attacked by the killer guppy.

Other Platys

The other two platys seem to be ok and swimming about like mad, but that's mainly cause the male is wanting to breed and she not interested so am planning on getting 4 new female platy of different colours, that is is my local shop has any.

Platy Fry 

The fry are doing good, they are now 9 days old and you can see how much they have grown now, and its possible to see the features on them.

Neon Tetras 

The neon tetras are doing ok, despite 2 being murdered by the killer guppy.

Black Widow Tetra

The black widow tetra is doing ok too, it is swimming about fine and does not have any problem being alone in the tank without other of its species. But its face still reminds me of a piranha.
