    Guppy ate hair?

    And your guppy looks like it has worms as well. Normally the chest of guppies should be so large. Yes I understand it's full of fry. I would suggest mixing API general cure in their food with some garlic or you can go all out with seachem products. Deworming guppies is a must.

    Help with snail problem.

    A loach is a wonderful solution to your issue. I do not recommend using a chemical of any kind. There are snail traps that you can purchase on Amazon. They work extremely well. You could even a make one your self at home. YouTube can offer a lot of diy's for fish keepers.

    Why does my snail keep falling?

    My guys do this as well. Some more than others. I have one gold snail that loves to do it in the bubbles and flat across the tank. I think some do it for fun. Even my wee lil snailets do this. I made up the word snailets.

    Mystery snail looks weird

    Your snail is lacking nutrition. He is need of calcium and other vitamins and minerals. I would suggest blanching kale for them and giving them green beans straight from the can. The no salt kind. These snails DO NOT LIVE OFF ALGAE. This is misconception of these guys. They require extra foods...

    Guppy ate hair?

    My guppies and Platy's get the occasional hair. They normally pass it it just fine. I never pull it out. You don't know how long the hair is and how far it is in your fish. I have lightly pulled and if it comes it comes. If not I break the hair so it's not sticking out of their mouths. Idk how...

    Sick Bettas - ich and complications

    So a suggestion. Never have someone feed while you are away. It seriously is better to not feed. Your fish can last over a month with out food, well that depends on the Heath of the fish. They can go up to 8 days no food as adults. I power feed a few days before I know I'm leaving for some time...
