So my sanchezi passed away one week ago, I cleaned the tank up a bit and wanted to keep it cycled and start a community tank. On Thursday I bought 3 female bettas and 1 male betta. I also bought 3 yoyo loaches.

Saturday I bought 9 rummy nose tetras 12 neon tetras, 9 red eye balloon tetras, 6 panda Cory's. Also Saturday I noticed my male betta was harassing the females so I removed him from the tank.

Today I bought 9 assorted male guppies 6 females (females were kept in separate tanks at LFS) i also bought 4 glow light tetras and 1 snowball pleco.

Tonight just before the lights were going to turn off I noticed about 6 tiny fry up in my guppy grass by my overflow. So I have no idea what gave birth or who's they are. What are the odds that one of the female guppies gave birth in my tank within literally the last 6 hours?

I mean I dont think anything else should have spawned within that time frame? Maybe the bettas but all 3 females are pretty small. And the male was removed a few days ago. The loaches, neon, and pandas, and red eye tetras are all rather small. The rummy noses are decent sized.

Any thoughts?? I was just taken back when I saw the tiny tiny fry right now, I mean none of the fish have been in there even a week at this point.

It had to have been a pregnant guppy I bought today right? But the female guppy tank they came out of had no fry in it or juveniles. I dont know.
