Hi there!
My guppy has been doing this for 8 days now. I have placed it in a separate tank, added aquarium salt, and medicated it with Tetra Lifegaurd for 5 days. Anyone know what could be causing this? Any other suggestions? No improvement noted in the 8 days. No other fish from the tank seem to be sick.
