accurist85 Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Hi guys, I have two pregnant ribbon fin guppies... They are fat as! But they dont seem to drop their babies!!! I really want to see the baby!!! Is there any reason they are holding their babies in their gut or, perhaps they need special requirement to drop them? My tank temperature is 28dgrees at this moment, and decorated with peacock moss, cryptocoryne and crinum calamistratum and narrow java fern in 45cm tank. Please let me know how to make them drop their babies soon!! they look like they'll burst!! but no babies yet thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandeecane Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 How long have they "looked" pregnant to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulp Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Check the water conditions and any sign of illness. My guppies can look fat as and still not drop for ages... you will just have to wait :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accurist85 Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 finally they gave birth to halthy 50 fry!!! growing fast every day... it's been 4 days now and they are fairly big! all swimming on top and eating well parents did chase them around but not a big casualty! two females are pregnant again, and looks fatter than last one.. I found that my guppys aren't ribbons, they are swallow tails thank you guys for help!@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
