Why Do They Eat Their Babies?

They don't realize what they are, and take them as food. One of the worst things you could do so they eat their babies is feed them when there is nothing to seperate the big fish from the little. As soon as they realizse the weird little speks are eating the food too, they will quickly eat the babies first, and then the food. If you have a female fish that has ever been with male fish, even for a minute she is pregnant.She can have babies multipul times without even being near the male fish again. If you have any fimale fish thats stomich is wider then the rest of the body they are pregnant.
