Help! Guppy Looks Like Its Stomach Is Hanging Out!

[emmareme]

Anyone have any ideas what's wrong with this fish? He is still swimming, well more like ttreading water, and eating. It looks as though the scales have split and this membrane thing is hanging out.

Do you have any picture, that would help

I thought I had uploaded one! Will do it again now x
It won't attach for some reason?
All too big to upload....how do I make the file smaller?

Make an account on photobucket and from there download it here.

Try uploading to photobucket or another site like that, then add a link

happened to one of mine, she's fine now, I just think she's sterile now.  I think it's a prolapsed uterus.

@topic starter: have you seen a picture of a fish hernia? Does it look like that? Fish hernia mostly happens to livebearers

yeah that one definitely looks more like a fish hernia than a prolapsed uterus poor fishy

 

[emmareme]

Is there anything I can do?

Sorry dear, guppies are too small to have an operation. Otherwise, if she's swimming and eating normally then she'll do just fine for the meanwhile.
