Hi all.

I've got a yellow tailed guppy, had it for a couple of weeks. The other night i noticed that the bottom half of the tail had turned from yellow to white - no hint of colour. Weird.

The very next morning... the colour is back! I know that fish colours can fade but I always thought that meant the colours in the body of the fish and not the tail.

Advice any one?

How many gallons or litres is the tank.
How many fish and which type.

Stats are good.
Are the danio stressing him out and do they try to peck at his tail.

No. They seem to ignore it.

Planning on getting a few more guppies to keep it company so maybe that will help it chill out a bit.
