Well I'm really happy with my guppies right now. I guess its just the thing with this hobby you always want to get another fish. I guess ill just have to try and convince my parents to get a large tank downstairs somewhere :D. Unfortunately they dont share my passion for the hobby so I doubt I...

Yer I'd thought about betta's and i spoke to the guy at my LFS about it. I was really keen but space and money are huge issues for me as I'm 15 and only have a small room. I had a female betta and she was awesome and it is something i really want to do. I've asked on this forum about space...

I had another female drop 14 fry in total. Again I wasn't there to see her give birth but hopefully I will soon. I released my first two fry into the main tank and they seem to be doing fine. Thanks again for all your advice after I get good at guppy breading, I want to move on to a...

I had something that sounds similar to this on one of my Guppies and i treated it with a fungus, finrot and bacteria treatment and it cleared up in about a week it got worse before it got better though. The spot on my guppy was raised but you could only see it from an angle and it affected one...

When i saw the bubble eyes i fell in love with them aswell. I'm new to the hobby and i did my research and unfortunately they seemed like a fish for a more advanced fish keeper. I think that the fact it spoke to you means you should definitely get them:)

I have just rescued a male guppy from a friends tank. I offered to take him because my friend had lost his two other guppies due to fish attacks. My friend brought the fish up to me today and it is missing a large proportion of its tail (will try to get a photo). It is very active and doesn't...

My Salvini Cichlid is my favorite i just love the colours i cant believe it only cost me 1.50. It killed various other fish but i cant hate it just an awesome fish.:D

I think i have another female due shortly then. Something I have noticed is that one of my guppies gravid spots is a blood red, is this normal? and my guppies gravid spots shrink overnight and then gradually get bigger, what is that about?

It must be just me then that struggles to keep males. I have had 4 males 3 of which have died and i havn't lost a single female i cant explain it i buy the healthiest looking. They are fine for about the first hour when i introduce them into the tank but then there condition deteriates and...

I wouldn't be supprised if they had my guppies seem to have bottomless stomachs. When will my guppy fry be big enough to survive with the adults? I don't want to put them back in too early and have them all eaten.

Another female dropped and i now have 5 guppy fry. I have posted a pic of the first two.

Anyone know how common these fish are?. I've never seen them before in any of my LFS, I think they look awesome.
