more baby guppies!

Fourth batch of fry yesterday. This time my youngest is cheerful about it, because I discovered an acquaintance (parent of my teenager's friend) has a tank and she'd be happy to adopt some guppies. I used the mesh box to separate them again, so I can give them extra feedings (three or four times a day to start) and grow them up well (without the adults pigging out).

Laddie is still a bit swollen under the belly, and still not eating. However he does move around the tank some and look at me sideways, instead of just hovering motionless in one spot. Maybe he will recover after all.
