No choice have to get new tanks for them and i dont want to mix the 1st batch n 2nd batch together. Moreover, if put netting 34 seem like very crowd for them, so got 2 new tanks from a good friend to put them in. Ang Ang and born on National day SURE must go NDP la. Carry my tank there.... haha

Sorry to learn about your fry. I know you feel sad but most of us have made some mistakes along the way but we learn from the mistakes and don't make them again. Overfeeding is one of the most common mistakes, we see the guppies eating furiously and think we need to add more and this is the mistake a lot of us make. Take care of the remaining fry and hope your other females or this one can drop again. I am even more cautious if I have a large batch of fry and will separate them into more than one tank/container just in case there is an accident then not all of them will be wiped out. The other thing that you need to pay attention to is the condition of your water, check your water condition periodically. I know it's not consolation but I have made many mistakes in the past and wiped out quite a lot of my guppies. I learnt from my mistakes.

Thanks for your advise. I have placed the remaining back into the main tank with netting. Checked this morning and 2 of the fry couldn't make it and died also. Left with 6 of them "actively" swimming around now.
