You need to go to the pet store(Petsmart) and buy a small floating tank for babies it goes inside youre aquarium so they dont get eaten by the adults I have one for my fancy guppies.After they grow more than you can use the plants.so they can hide from adults.hope this helps.

You don't have to worry about eating them, but you do have to worry about the parents eating them. Get some floating plants, rocks, fake plants, a lot of places for the babies to hide. Also, go to the pet store and get baby fish food. The flakes are too big for them.
My fish has had babies many times, nearly half had survived. It's a lot of fun, but it's a problem when they get older. You have to make sure you have room for all of the fish. How big of a tank do you have? There should be 1 gallon for each fish in the tank. If you don't have room and you don't want to kill them, talk to your local pet store and see if they will take the babies.
Good Luck!

Kill? Eat? What are you talking about??? Put the babies in a seperate tank if you have one. Let them grow up to about half the size of an adult before putting them back in with the adults. Or you could put in lots of plants and rocks to create hiding places for them.

Do you have a baby net? If not ,go get one. It floats in the top of the tank. Otherwise the other fish will eat them.

Make sure that you have floating plants in the aquariam for them to hide in. Otherwise, the adult fish will eat them. Keep in mind that only some of them will survive. Good Luck!

you may have plants in the aquarium to keep them safe, or you can seperate them from other fish. you can put them in a fish bowl and buy a cheap filter and an air pump and keep the baby fish there until they grow bigger than the mouths of the fish in the tank.

last year my cousin's fishes had babies too and they took the babies to another bowl... because if you let them to live with the big fishes, they eat the babies... (i heard that they eat their babies...)
