Separate newborn guppy fry from the adult fish immediately to prevent them from being eaten. Newborn fry do not need food for the first 2-3 days; then feed them brine shrimp, paramecium, or boiled, crushed egg yolk. If you have many fry, buy brine shrimp eggs and hatch them yourself. Once the fry reach about 2 cm, switch to regular fish food. Change water regularly: let fresh water sit in sunlight for about three days, keep one-third of the old water, add two-thirds new water, and change about once a week.
