    First Time Breeder

    Um, how long is it supposed to take for the females to have babies? On the date that I made my last post (March 30) I bought 2 male guppies, and added them to my tank. By all accounts I heard it takes 30ish days. This morning I woke up to see babies. More correctly I woke up in time to see my...

    Are all my fish going to die?

    I just watched one of my fish take a bright blue crap. Pretty sure THAT is a bad sign :O

    Are all my fish going to die?

    It's mercury. I remember reading all the warnings on the package when I got it. Fat lot of good it did me too.

    Are all my fish going to die?

    So, today I was cleaning my tank. I also wanted to rearrange my decor, and I was replacing some gravel (pink just wasn't working for me anymore) so I transferred all my fish to my 10G until I had the fresh gravel rinsed and ready to go. Got that all settled then I add the fish with the 10G of...

    L-46 Zebra Plec?

    I saw a local ad recently (Victoria, Canada) selling one of these for $300. L46 Zebra Pleco Central Saanich, Victoria Can't say I would ever spend that much money on a fish, even though she is neat looking.

    Haha, I took the 25G out of the box and it had a huge crack down the side. Another trip across the street, they replaced the tank for free. I also picked up 2 new heaters, with dials, MORE frozen fish food, some valves and tubing, decorations, backgrounds, a variety of live plants (no idea...

    I have to thank you all so much for answering my questions. It's been a huge help. As for tanks, I was out this morning with my sister, and she threw down a little bit of money, and I got a 33G and a 25G. I also picked up two breeding traps, stocked up on frozen fish foods, and bought another...

    I looked at some Endlers. I'd like to find some in specific colors I saw pictures of. Personally though, I would give it a try breeding them with guppies, but they are pretty spectacular on their own. Also, if I have a female with a tailfin I love, what would be my best course of action in...

    I've had these guppies for quite some time now. I'd say maybe 2-3 months. None of them have been tanked with males at any point, to my knowledge anyways. The 3g tank has a light, filter, gravel, heater, etc. But if you think it's okay to leave them in my tank and have a few be eaten, I'm okay...

    Hi, I've never bred guppies before. I have 3 females, that I sort of inherited. Happens to me a lot with fish.... I know they are fancy guppies, and I know that my pet store sells fancy male guppies. I also know that I should have more females than males. So I am going to buy 2 males, and add...

    Crowded?

    Well unfortunately, at some point last night Lucky One-Fin passed away. I had been trying to adopt him from my sister for a long time (ever since she ripped his fin off while catching him to clean his gravel.... There was a lot of crying. My brother is all "It's just a fish". So we beat him...

    Crowded?
