I have a tank with
some assorted fish and one day I was with my friend at the pet store.
We are both aquarium lovers and she needed some new fish. As I gazed
at the huge variety of fish, I came across a tank of purple dragon guppies.
I loved them. I made sure that they would be okay in my tank and then
decided to get some that weekend. I did, and I went with my friend.
While we were riding in the car on the way back,she asked to hold them.
I let her. As she looked at them, she had a strange expression on her
face. To my surprise, she said one guppy was pregnant. I looked at them
and realized she was right. It has been a little less than a week and
she didn't look as pregnant. I searched for babies, but could not find
any (I am on a tight fish budget and hadn't yet gotten a place for her).
Finally, in the corner I saw one, single, solitary baby that was very
paranoid. I quickly got him out and into his own tank. It has been a
day or two and I have still been searching for more babies. I hate to
say it, but they may have been eaten. At least I am fortunate enough
to have one.
