They have fin rot Anyway ime going to do a 40% water change and ime continuing to add salt

I have already done a 50% water change a little over a week ago and it put my nitrites down to 4 (because they were at 8 yikes i know) but right now they are at 3 and i will continue doing water changes as it seems to be my best option

I have a 50 gallon tank. At the bginning i got twenty fish 10 guppies and 10 platies and then irealized that was to many at a time so i returned dead ones and started adding about four every time but they keep dying i was doing water changes every week of 25% but now i do it every other day 10%...

Well, I,ve dealt with lots of lights and you can choose from like six different kinds. What i would do would be get one that will help live plants and another for fish colour. I have a female guppy who likes beuitiful under that lighting and one of my orange platies looks a beuitiful bright red

That is highly likly a livebearer even if your algae eaters did spawn it wouldnt be one 1/4 of a centimeter is a healthy size for their fry

If y' all ever come to Calgary looking for Fish, either go to Big als or Pisces Pet Emporium

What is the best way to acclimate livebearers such as platies and guppies into a 50 gallon tank

Hi, I,me going to get 10 platies and ten guppies at a ratio to 3 males for 7 females. I have a 50 gallon aquarium do you think that my tank will get crazy overun by babies

Did you find that at the pet store or did you have to cut it customly

I am going to have platy and guppy fry soon:) and i dont want to buy a new filter because i have a great one. Sponge filters are a no for me. Is there anything i can buy so that little fry wont be sucked up in a filter Here is what the intake looks like

Thanks! I realize i would be lucky to give them away free

1-2 is what the pet stores recommend however 1-3 is only better. Guppies are breeding machines and after her initial fry drop her next one. May be around 40 fry. If the adults are fed well they and there is enough cover the babies may not even be eaten. However they can be sucked up by the...

A week or so seems realistic however breeder cages can make them very stressed out so be careful. Only put her in the cage when you think she is going to release the fry

Hi, i was wondering wherer all of you think i could rid of guppies and platies fry. i know especially guppy fry are not in high demand however what could i do with them
