Hi,
I lost touch with you guys for awhile, but I'm glad to be back!
Anyway, my question is: What causes (normally calm) fish to become agressive all of a sudden?
I have a female guppy who used to be calm and sweet. But recently she started attacking my other fish, so I had to separate her from the others. She even killed my favorite male guppy (I cried for hours
) and before that when she had babies, she ate ALL of them! (Normally she eats a few, but not all.) What's up with that?!
My tank is not overcrowded at all, I have this one female guppy an algea eater, a clown loach and 4 baby guppies in a 10 gallon tank. The water chem is perfect and the temp is okay too, although a little higher than usual because I haven't turned the A/C on yet in my apparment.
So did my guppy just go insane???? I know guppies tend to eat their young, but attacking other fish?
