We've had two babies die. I'm nearly having to force feed one or two of the remaining five babies. (I hold a wiggling guppy by the tail and keep sticking it in their face until they grab it and swallow it.)

Sammy (the mom) wasn't eating very well either. I turned on a heating pad under her tank and that seemed to help with her, but I'm not sure it would work well with the glad containers the babies are in.

I'm not sure how much the babies are supposed to eat, but they usually only eat 2 or 3 guppies a week. Sometimes only two at one time and then none until the next week. What is normal for less than 6 month old babies?

Thanks!
