20 females will keep your fish fed, especially if you have a grow out tank to put all the babies to fatten up. 30 - 40 half grown guppies would keep the Oscars well exercised!

Well... They have things called Gambusia, or mosquito fish.
They are live bearers, you just need several large ones.

thats what i thought at first, but it comes and goes,
then i thought a disease, but same thing... one minute it's there, the next it's not...
it's definetly on the outer flesh and not inside like the females organs are...
but still underneath the scales if u know what i mean...
Need sum batteries for the digicam so i can show u all.....

do you have plenty of hiding places? is this the small, least dominate, male of the tank? maybe its stress..

Update:
had approximatly 20 or so fry come so far, but not one guppy has made it to the Cichlid Tank yet,
As some of u may know I've got a tiny Black Ghost Knife in with my guppies, and I can confidfently say he's been knocking off alot of the female guppies, and they're fry.. I think i'll partition my main again for the BGK and move him up in the world.
