Get some real plants for the fry to hide in, without that the chance of your fry to servive is very very slim

or you get a plastice 3way breeder and put your fry in there until they are about 4-6 weeks old

Good luck

Your guppies and betta are going to enjoy those tasty little fry unless you move them. Floating aquatic plants will help reduce predation, but the only way to raise all of them is to move them to a breeder or new tank. This is why fish farmers raise fry separatly from the adults when possible.

slim to none, depending on how old they are. especially if theres a betta.
no need to get gravel. you really only NEED gravel if you plan on having real plants or are trying to make a habitat. some tanks look better as bare bottom.

Not a great chance! Get some floating plants, you can float breeding grass upside down and this help! Good luck!

Chances are slim unless you have lots of plants in there. The babies do need plenty of places to hide.
