My 18 month old female Molly just gave birth to about 45 fry 3 days ago, of which about half have died despite being separated into a ‘baby’ tank that is properly cycled with water tests all showing no problems. She’s back in the main tank but appears to have a bent spine. She’s swimming around...

I have 1 Neon Tetra much bigger & bulgier than the others who are all trim looking. Does this mean it is a female & carrying eggs? If so what are the optimum conditions for them to be born & how often do tetras lay eggs. I’m new to this & know more about live bearers. If they’re born in the...

My baby goldfish has developed a bright red face over about 2-3 days, it seems fine otherwise. Does anyone know what it is. I don't even know what type of goldfish it is because there were eggs in aquarium plants I bought for my tropical tank. It's 10 weeks old. I bought a Calico goldfish 1 week...
My adult female marble coloured molly has always had this slight yellow tinge near her gills. But my baby born Xmas day has developed these bright yellow spots over the past 2 weeks. All the searches I've done say this is a normal colour in the Dalmation Molly, is it normal? I got a good photo...
