    Fry!

    Why won't my guppy drop her fry??? Please help...

    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.

    What is wrong with my black mollie?

    Ive had him for a few months. His original companion unexpectedly died over over a month ago and shortly after we got him 3 black mollie tank mates.

    Gammarus?

    Can I raise Gammarus or some other live food off the back of a ten gallon in a 3 gallon container? They would be food for Guppies, Least Killifish, and maybe a Betta.

    Is This Guppy Pregnant?

    Hello again. I can't tell if one of my guppies is pregnant. I put a male in with her for a few days about a month ago. Unfortunately the female killed him while I was on vacation... He was only in her tank for about 3-5 days. I decided that my guppy was pregnant because she had a dark gravid...
