    Guppies not looking too good.

    I've had these guppies for about 5 months from a friend. When he gave them to me, he notified me that these fish were already pretty old, around 1 1/2 years, and they were looking fine until this month, which is around the 2 year mark. One male has a clamped tail, my three others are looking...

    Guppy at the Bottom of Tank

    Hello, I have a female blue Fancy Guppy that has been staying at the bottom of the right side of the tank for most of the day. I understand that this is not normal behavior for a Guppy. She isn’t breathing heavily or have a bulged stomach. She does swim up to eat (like normal). And every now and...

    Hello, I am having a little complication with about several of my female guppies. They just won't drop their fry. They are huge and look as if they are balloons on the verge of popping.

    Guppies not getting pregnant!!

    I've had these guppies for about 2 months now and nothing is happening. I monitor my 2 females and they both look like they've been getting bigger but there is absolutely no visible gravid spot. I'm not overfeeding as my males look perfectly healthy. It's a tad bit orange/red on the backside but...

    Room for guppies, and if so 5 males?

    I will be purchasing an 105 litre (27.7381g) aquarium that will be heavily planted and house a honey gourami and 6 panda corydoras and was wondering if there would be enough room for 5 Red Blonde Guppies and if so would 5 males be okay as I have no interest in breeding lots of guppies right now...

    Heater watts for a five gallon

    So a little bit of background first. I'm in college and I live in the dorms. A neighbor on my floor bought six male guppies and two mystery snails, and stuck them all in a 2.5 gal without heat/filter/air, and without proper bacteria supplement and tap water purifier. Two guppies died. After...

    Guppy always has long stringy poops, what could it be?

    Hi, I have 3 guppies in my tank. It's fairly heavily planted low tech tank. I've had all of them for about a month. I did cycle the tank fist and my numbers are pretty much always 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 0 nitrate (I believe the plants are consuming all the nitrates generated by the fish). I...

    What is wrong with my fancy black tailed guppy!???

    I started out with three adult guppies. Two female and one male. Naturally they populated. The adults both died after a few months within a week of eachother and they had bloated bellies and little white balls coming out of their stomachs, almost looked like eggs but they are live bearers...

    Skirt Tetra Tank Mates

    Hello! I have an established 20g standard planted tank with eight skirt tetras (a mix of white, black, and a "GloTetra"), and I'd love to create a community. I've been looking into guppies, but I'm getting mixed information as to whether or not guppies can coexist with skirt tetras without...

    How to breed fancy Guppies?

    Hello all. After a disease outbreak in my 7 gallon breeder tank, my flagfish were dead (keep in mind THEY came from my LFS.) and I was in the market for some new fish. My local petsmart is always pretty reliable in terms of high quality "healthy" fish, so I brought home a beautiful bright orange...

    Can I add Guppies to my tank of Platies and Danios?

    Hi, so I’ve had my 40L (10 gal) tank if a couple Platies and Danios that get along just fine for a few months now. I started to notice that the tank looked a little... empty. I already have many plants and decorations inside, but it just looks like the ratio of fish to tank space is pretty low...
