Default Baby guppies, really strange

I have installed breeding net in my tank where I have one baby platy. Today I found in this net 3 very small baby guppies. I have no idea how they ended up there. I didn't put guppy mama to the net. I saw her recently hiding btw net and tank wall. Maybe she gave birth and small babies just swam thru the net. I hope I will find more babies in the tank.

Default Re: Baby guppies, really strange

any small rips or holes that the babies could have swam in through? did the top of the net sink below the water line? My fry net used to drop slowly over time and sometimes an edge of the top would be slightly under water and it let one of my babies escape. they had to have swam in by some method, either a hole or a temporary breach in the top. hopefully theres more!

Net is brand new. No holes, no rips. It's possible that it sink under the water.
I have in this net about 3/8"-1/2" platy baby. I see that sometimes he chase my new guppies, but they manage to escape. I think that it is yet too early to release this platy to tank, isn't it?
