I don't think she is getting better, I think she is getting use to her handicap and is adjusting. She is not swimming on as much of an angle. She is eating and doing everything else normal. This guppy is large compared to most that I have seen. Perhaps she is just getting old. Thanks for...

Water quality is good. "0" count N3 etc. She also has a bit of an arch or hump in her back. It almost seems that she has a problem with her spine. Is it possible for a fish to through their back out?

Melafix is like Buckley's Cough Medicine....Smells like it too. Smells bad but it works. Did wonders for my guppies.

I have a female guppy who gave birth a few days ago and is having problems swimming. She doesn't have the flexability in her swim that she had before and she is tail heavy, swimming on a angle. She had babies a month and a half ago and 5 weeks later a second batch. She seemed really big for a...

It amazes me that Guppies can have up to 6 batches of fry over a period of time from one mating session. Maybee this is common knowledge but when my friend told me this I thought he was off his rocker until one of mine did it. Roger can you expand on the selective breeding topic. I am new...

Great News...The Ich seems to be gone and my hair is starting to grow back :lol: It has been a long 2 months but I think I have won the battle. After turning my fish into junkies, with all the different meds I threw at them, I think the product called "ICH CURE" finally got rid of the @#$%%$...

Well I am in Canada any of you folks are more than welcome to come up here and help yourselves to as much snow as you like. I liked it as a kid, but I despise it now. 3.4 feet in the front yard. I long to see my green green grass....and then it s that darn grass cutting time......Hard to...

I can't remember how much I paid for them, but they work great for standing on cement for any length of time. It really saves the old knees. And it is dense enough so that water can't seep in and cause mold and other slimy things.

Recently I decided to set up another tank. I placed the tank on a kids work desk, but had some concerns about how level or flawed it was. After hearing horror stories of tank explosions because of defective stands, I decided to put a cushion underneath. A lady at my LFS told me to use...

The doses here seem a little weak compared to the instructions on the Aquarium Salt box from Hagen. They recommend 1 TABLESPOON per 5 gallon to treat Ich. My LFS said the same thing. Actually disregard... I guess 1 tsp per gallon is the same or close to 1 tbsp/5 gallon. This explains alot...

Talked to the LFS where I got the fish.. They admitted to having a bad batch of fish in this one shipment. Refunded my money. I moved my last guppy to a bucket and put fresh water in the tank. Thought I would start fresh with the other fish dead or showing signs of infection gone. Next I will...

Did that also. :?

No the tank is not cycled yet. I was using guppies to cycle and keep. Thought I would use guppies because they are suppose to be so hardy. Last night I took out the ornaments and did a 12 Gallon water change. (15 Gallon Tank)(Water was cloudy looking)(Water still a little cloudy). Down to 3...

Thanks fishfreek, but thats what I do and it then tells me that my profile is updated, yet when I go back into it, its the same old address. It does not make me reactivate though. Any suggestions?
