    Do fancy guppies need friends?

    I got a pair of fancy guppies but after a few weeks the female died. The male seems okay to me, he is in there with 3 galaxy rasboras but they don't hang out in the same areas. Is a guppy okay being solo or would he be happier with a pal?

    Fluval edge aquarium?

    I was wondering if anyone here had used a Fluval edge aquarium and could comment on the pros and cons? I was especially wondering about temperature (no in built heater) and oxygen exchange (limited water surface area). Also how hard are they to maintain and clean? I was thinking of getting one...

    3 gallon impulse buy

    I got a good deal online for a 3 gallon mini-aquarium. I admit it was a bit of an impulse buy, but wondered what suggestions people might have for it.

I was wondering if they could still be yellow var. or if I might have...
