Help!
My husband owns a guppy tank. Itās a 10 gallon with 4 guppies, 2 male and 2 female and 3 nerite snails.
today as we watch the tank we notice that there are something moving, very small fishes and then we found out that was one of the guppy baby.
the question is, what should we do now...
Help! Iāve been keeping fish for years. Had a break from the hobby for a few years when we moved home. Set up a new aquarium details below. Itās cycled for 3 weeks and then added a group of male and female guppies from local store. All was well for about three days and the we began observing the...
Hey so i took this first picture 2 days ago and the second right now the dark spot is completely gone does that mean she gave birth? She never got too big so i didnāt get a chance to move her to the separate tank to give birth. Thanks in advance!
Hello! My name is Hannah. I have a 5 gallon tank stocked with 2 male guppies and 1 albino corycatfish. I wanted to start small and I really didn't have room for anything bigger (or the money to do it). I did my research and I believe things have gone swimmingly in my new tank. However, just last...
Hi,
My name is Erin. This is my first aquarium. It is a 15 gallon fluval flex, purchase for my son for Christmas (but I am obsessed with it too!). We wanted live plants so we have 2 anubias, a lace fern, a java fern, and two other plants. We started with 8 guppies, but unfortunately 4 have...
I am confused. She still has a belly and just popped out 4 fry like 4 days ago. Could it have been stress induced? She was getting harassed by males. Is she going to have more? The babies are also uninterested in any food. I've tried pellets, flakes and shrimp but they don't want anything.
Iāve just noticed one of my guppies has some of what I believe to be Camallanus worms ive watched a few YouTube videos and they all seem to recommend API General Cure, however I canāt seem to find it for sale in the UK. Does anyone know any alternative worming medications that are effective? I...
Hi, I recently got three male guppies, and are keeping them in a 5 gallon tank with lots of plants and places to hide. My smallest guppy, Fabio, is being chased by the other two a lot. He spends a lot of his time in the corner of the tank at the top of the water, usually by the heater...
So today I just noticed a red thing coming out of my guppyās stomach. I didnāt notice it yesterday and he wasnāt acting weird that I noticed. He is swimming today but seems skittish.
I have been breeding guppies and this is the first fry I have brought to maturity. They have beautiful colors and are almost holographic. I do not know the type that the females are and I have no clue what males they were bred with. Does anyone know if there is a specific name for this type of...
Fish with light yellow tail- is this slightly albino?
This fish has been growing larger by the day lately and is showing a similar shape to my pregnant guppy. I canāt see a gravid spot, this is why Iām wondering if it is albino as I have searched on the internet about this.
Any help would be...
Hey hey! So, I have a tank of about 16 guppies and 4 tetras. Most of the guppies are young except for the one in question. She's an adult albino red guppy, and pretty much the most social of all of them.
Yesterday morning, she got herself wrapped up inside a moss ball (don't ask me how, I...
Update 12/14: second water change completed today of about 60-70% of water. Total Ammonia - 0.5ppm, NH3 - 0.1ppm, NO2 - .25ppm, NO3 - 5ppm, and pH 7.6.
I have a 20gal freshwater tank and no matter what I do I cannot get my ammonia levels down. Iāve had the aquarium for 6 months and Iām pretty...
I recently got a beautiful extended trio of red lace metalhead guppies with a bunch of fry, and I also already had lots of fry in the tank. I just noticed that many of the fry hang out at the top of the tank and mainly stay in the same place. They don't seem to be gasping, but I want to make...
So I look at my fish often. Like every hour of the day if I can and Iāve come home this evening to find all 4 of my male guppies and maybe 5/7 cardinal tetras have quite big bellies!! All seem pretty happy and active as usual except 1 guppy is obviously trying to poop and is being quite...
Hello everyone,
I got new guppies a few weeks ago and I went ahead and treated the whole tank with two rounds of API general cure to be safe because in my experience guppies are VERY prone to parasites. I noticed one of my fish becoming more skinny lately and today I noticed white stringy poop...
Sorry i really dont have any good picture exept this one.
Anyway... It been more then one week that my most beautiful female guppy seems to have trouble swimming, even though i didnt buyed her like that. She gave birth only one time and had only been paired with one male (exept potantial male...
