So my tank went from :invasion: to :neutral::neutral:!!!!! Are guppies territorial to other guppies? I recently cycled my tank and when I added four guppies, one of them bullied two of the other ones and they would not eat and ended up dying!!! Has anyone else had this problem? What are good tank mates for guppies?
 
More info would be good... what size tank? Male/female guppies (how many of each)? How did you cycle? What are your water parameters?
 
The only issues I have had with guppies is when i kept many males in with only a few females. Several of the males got their fins shredded and some of the females were bugged by the males until they died of exhaustion. I'd have to think something else is going on in your tank. Some more info would be great.
