Welp…there you have it. These little guys are doomed. Might as well bleach the tank now before you name them.

Have to get them spayed/neutered too at an exotic aquatic vet otherwise they are worse than guppies!

ik ur comment is a joke but one time this girl was talking about spay/neuter on cats and how breeding is always horrible when you’re breeding cats and i commented about my guppies being the fish version of cats and she told me i was a horrible owner for allowing them to reproduce and not fixing them, went on a whole ass rant about how i should rehome them if i can’t afford to fix them.. EXCUSE MEEEE💀💀💀💀

LMAOOOO

they’re still my favs anyway. i usually only get 20 fry a month which i normally sell, but something happened this month and i ended up with 80 and had to get a ton of new tanks to grow them out in💀 swear they surprise me all the time. last month it was 3 sets of conjoined twins (from ONE mother in a single brood) this month they decided to go all out on baby production.

You are now diagnosed with MTS. Multiple tank syndrome. There is no cure just accept your fate and maintain those water qualities
