Awesome. Keep the guppies and once he's a little bigger use Dieselmack's sticky to try to get him off of live. Let us know if you have any questions!

Awesome!!!

well i have a question wat should i feed him wen the guppy fry run out in that ussually a week of no fry wat should i feed him then? blood worms?

 

[alex2158]

and how do u tell if its a mono or wat not or wat speicies it is i researched them for a few days before i bought him or her but i couldnt find these facts for some reason

There is an ID thread, but it's really hard when they're that small. When the guppies run out the best thing to do is get more guppies. You can try any frozen foods small enough for them, or live blood/blackworms.

i just went out and bought some really small red rosies i hope he will eat them if not i also got meal worms so we will see wat he is going to eat

You could feed them cut pieces of shrimp or fish, frozen bloodworms, brine shrimp, freeze-dried krill...I would try to ween them off of live food and only give them live as an occassional treat.

sounds like everyone has you questions covered.. usually i got live black worms > guppies> cut shrimp> pellets and krill and then a mix of live stuff as treats like minnows, live ghost shrimp
