    Pregnant guppy grounded

    Hi folks, This guppy has been obviously pregnant for some time, but hasn’t dropped any fry for several weeks. She’s been hiding in low flow places in the tank for a while, but is now grounded and struggling to lift off the tank floor/furniture. Two questions: - Should I disturb her by cleaning...

    White guppy failing

    It sounds like whatever is going on in our tank isn’t life span related. I will post a separate thread about it. Thanks for everyone’s help.

    White guppy failing

    Thanks, emeraldking, that’s good to know. She was hugely pregnant the whole time she was with us, and it certainly looked like it would strain her system. What is an average life span for a guppy?

    White guppy failing

    Hi folks, our white guppy has had many offspring in the six months or so she’s been with us, but over the last week has started failing. She is thin and swimming crooked, seems caught by surface tension at the top of the tank, and has a ragged caudal fin. Any advice?

    Mine does too :). We are also big Moomintroll fans, so your ID photo brings me lots of joy.

    New guppy in distress

    Final update: I’m happy to report that after a couple of weeks being a bottom fish, the little white guppy is back up in the water column, hanging out with the other guppies again. She seems to have recovered from her problem and is able to float again. Thanks for the help, everyone.

    Fin rot bronze corys

    What a difference the filter additions made! The filter floss and sponge filter completely cleared up the tank. I added 1tbsp/20l salt, and the two cories have perked up a bit. The fungal fluff on the sicker one’s fin is a little smaller. No improvement in the fin rot, but it doesn’t look worse...

    Fin rot bronze corys

    The two cories are amazingly still with us, but continue to decline. One now has almost no top fin, and his tail is also rotting away. He is also developing a secondary fungal infection on a pectoral fin. Are these symptoms sufficiently diagnostic to treat with medication? What can I do to save...
