My guppy is SICK! She has been pregnant for about 2 weeks, a week ago I put her in this breeding net I got from the store that isolates her from other fish. Just yesterday I went up to my tank to go to bed and fed them. Then I noticed that my guppy was acting weird and I noticed that she is swimming completely lopsided. I am totally worried about her heath, and the undeveloped fry health, so I put her back in the main tank with the others, and I'm afraid if I do that she will mate gain and save it for later, so I really need help, and FAST!
I just cleaned the tank about a week ago, and dod everything I normally do. Even though she is a fairly new addition to the tank, the guppies that I bought with her are doing fine.
The tank is 5.5 gallons, and has been set up for over two years.
I use a whisper filter
I have three guppies and two other white cloud minnows. All male.
I clean the gravel thoroughly and I do a 25% water change every time I clean.
I got her from petco, she was mistaken for a male and was in the male tank.
The only time I change decor is when I do cleaning, and I have two tanks, so I just switch the decor back and forth.
I just got some new food, but it is the same kind as I had been feeding them: Tetra Tropical. She has not been eating since I put her in the breeding net, but ate after I took her out. Please, help me!:(
 
Nevermind...

Too late. She died. I came in and she was sticking to the filter. Am beginning to believe that she was not pregnant, just had some kind of disease. Ug.:(

:thanks: anyways.
