Adrienne Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Deformed fry are normally caused by inbreeding too many generations. Well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Deformed fry are normally caused by inbreeding too many generations. Well done Can be plenty of reasons though, poor diet and bad water qaulity can cause alot of stress on the female, also just because shes blue doesnt mean all the babys will be. Best thing you can do is setup a good sized tank with regular water changes (one 'key' to growth) and plenty of plants and let them do thier thing Looking forward to photos, I have some blues growing out at the momment aswell. Guppys rock Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
