hi i have been trying to keep guppies but am running into some problems. so i have a small 5 gallon tank with 2 ghost shrimp and an African dwarf frog in it. i wanted to add some fish so i figured some guppies would be a good addition. i put two male guppies in and then after a few days one of them died. that's when i notices that the other males tail looked like it had been nipped. over the next few days the remaining guppies tail got worse and worse until he was just being pushed around by the small current from my filter. i now have another male and a female and the same thing appears to be happening, i tested my tank and the pH is good and the shrimp and frog are still doing great. what could be the problem. thanks

im looking at a 110 litre aquatropic tank complete with heater, internal filter, thermometer, light built into hood. i want some community fish cause i love them, guppys,mollys,platys,neon tetras,golden tetras and maby some gaurami. i would like to know how many of these fish i could put in you know like how many guppies,mollys etc that i could put in. i know how to look after them and everything and have been offered some free live plants, about 10 of them which come from a community tank aswell so im well prepared also could i add any tropical sharks like red tailed shark?? i know that silver sharks deffinetly dont go

I bought a tequila sunrise male guppy several months ago (5 to 6) from my lfs. It was the first fish we put in our tank. The tank is well established now. This guppy is a real trooper. He made it through the cycling process, recovered from a severe case of internal parasites (gotta love lfs), and is now finally starting to get bigger. When I first got him he had slight fin rot on his tail so I treated with melafix. But after that he developed a bubble inside of his tail fin. At the time he had a buddy that is no longer with us and that fish did not get any bubbles in his fin. None of the guppies I have bought have developed it either. He has developed several more since. None have ruptured or look like they are going to. He is a happy, active fish. The bubbles are small. There is no discoloration and they are definately inside his tail. Has anyone else seen this before? Is it something I need to treat? If so how do I treat it. TIA here is a pic http://yfrog.com/5bdashtail1j I do weekly 20% water changes. Always age my water and add it in very slowly to the tank. I have already treated my tank for parasites several times and ich. Again none of the other fish have developed this. I have a lot of aeration in the tank.

I had a male guppy in my ten gallon aquarium and then later i bought a female guppy and i saw the female guppy was pregnant and when i put the female in the aquarium the male immediately started chasing after the female and it looked like they were fighting so should i worry or do something??? Thanks

My fish just got ich (again) and I'm currently treating it with rid-ich. I have 3 male fancy guppies and 1 female dalmation molly. Also, my molly is swimming vertical sometimes (head up, also almost upside down) and it doesn't look good or seem right, so I decided to switch to keeping brackish water from now on to help with the stress. (I also learned that livebearers should be kept in brackish water) I've never used salt before, so I was wondering how I should properly introduce it to my tank while also treating ich? Is it safe to use salt with meds at the same time? I also have this stuff called "stress coat" that I plan on using after they are cured to help repair damaged tissue and replace slime coating. Is this a good idea and Is it safe to use this with the salt as well? Looking for good, helpful, professional answers, thanks. :)

Sorry last question for the night I promise! XD So yeah, I bought a fish book at a thrift store and these fish piqued my interest. Also I'm not talking about a 'goldfish' I'm talking about a GloFish. It's a genetically altered zebra danio(I'm assuming they'll school together with the danios, please tell me if I'm wrong). Anyways, after those 6 fish were to be introduced to a standard 30 gallon tank, how much tank space would be left? I was thinking a slightly larger 'center piece' fish would complete the aquarium's look. Problem is, is that I don't know what fish would get along with those two breeds(I've only owned a beta). ^^; So in your opinion what fish would suit them? Or even just fish that could get along with the guppies since they're the main fish that I'd likely get. XD Any answers appreciated thank-you!

ok so ive got a general community tank, neons, danios, angels, platys, chorys, plec,Red tail black shark, gourami 2 angels, 3 female betta's, guppies blah blah blah. Originally had had 6 danio's, and 5 neons, now down to 4 danios and 2 neons, turns out my filter was the culprit. Finding there mushed bodies behind the filter. So now the filter is no longer stuck on the glass and just sat on the bottom, which seemed to solve the problem. Then i went away for a week, but someone was still at home looking after the fish. When i got back, My heavily pregnant female guppy was gone, and my redtail black shark was gone. i Emptied the tank of all decor and plants, expecting to find there skeletons as i assumed the plec would have had them after they died, (like he did with one of my chory's) However, nothing, the tank was bare, i moved the gravel around, i was told the shark maybe hiding in the gravel but nothing. Also, i found one of my platys floating dead in the tank, as i went to get it with the net, its head came off =| so, any ideas what could have happened? i have 2 hole in the tank lid for the wires ect, around 1-3 inches long, are sharks prone tank jumpers? i dont know. Any help or suggestions would be awsome :) Tank is 60 litres. And Ph and ammonia levels seem normal. Non of the other fish are acting abnormal and losing colour, which usually happens with poor water quality. AND i apologise about my poor spelling :) missed this bit out, there are around 20 small fish in the tank. Temp is kept at around 25-27 'C :)

I have a blue and red guppy. I introduced a smaller yellow guppy and two tiny barbs and my original guppy's tail now looks as its been bitten. I' ve watched them and appears that the new guppy is biting the old.I don't know what to do, but i am going to the pet shop today to ask. Should more guppy's be introduced to even it out???

after cleaning my tank i noticed that one of my female guppy looks different. yes she is pregnant heres a picture. im just worride because notice here belly is flat and you cant see this but theres something looks wrong near the place where she has here baby (ten points best anwser) http://s845.photobucket.com/albums/ab20/person3301/?action=view¤t=untitled.jpg
