Bad news. The guppy has unfortunately died. Thanks for all the advice, though, I will now be prepared in case others in the tank start to have problems.

So, how long should I use the 1 gallon tank for then? I have no filter for it.

So how long should I leave the guppy in the tank? Or should I add the salt to the normal tank?

I have no secondary tank I can use for longer than 1 hour, which is to say it is only suitable for a betta at best. Is it okay to use the epsom salt with the others in a tank? I know I should have a second tank, but money issues.

With the other fish in the tank, I mean?

Should I still use the epsom salt?

Hey. I'm starting this topic for those who own or have owned Piranhas before, of any type. I myself have owned 4 red-bellied. Anyone have any stories or anything, post them here. Photos wanted. A funny story about my red bellies. We feed them goldfish sometimes. They would run away from the...

No interest in food, but it looks just as fat as the others.

Is a little table salt OK? I should mention I have no other tank, like a hospital tank, and there are 4 other healthy guppies in the same tank. It is a 30 gallon tank.

Not poop. It looks like a translucent white, like an intestine. I don't have aquarium salt.

Help!   One of my guppies may be dying! I don't know what is wrong! It is floating in a corner of my tank, with this weird puffy tube hanging out the anus. I can't upload a picture right now, but I do know that the water is 140 ppm KH, 7.505 pH, and cycled. What should I do?

Would guppies be OK in a barb and danio tank?

Thanks Byron. I think I'm going to go for a active tank with some barbs and danios.

So, what would go good in a 55 gallon tank, plenty of fake plants (some floating,) pH~7.505, GK of 140ppm. I want 5 species total, and I already have guppies. These may be changed, though. The species must be a schooling species.

Thanks Byron. I understand. You aren't skirting it, you're simply explaining why I asked an impossible-to-answer question. Thanks.
