There's a weird bug in my tank! I just noticed it. No idea what it could be. Please help? Should I catch it and get rid of it or leave it? This is the best photo I could get sorry.

I don't know what's wrong with my guppy. I originally thought she was pregnant, but she's so big now she looks like she will literally explode. Her scales are raised, she has had stringy white poo for about 24 hours, she's quite see through but there are no visible fry... She won't eat and is...

She's HUGE!! And her scales on her belly are starting to spread and spike. Could she just be extremely pregnant or is there more to it? I thought because she is so light I would be able to see the fry by now, but I can't. Is there something wrong with her? :(

So I swore last night my blue guppy was about ready to pop so I put her in the breeding net over night, but no babies and she even looks smaller somehow (if that's even possible) Now the yellow guppy looks more ready for her babies but I'm just not sure when :/ Any advice on how much longer...

And if yes, when do you think she's due? :)

Help! My female guppy has half swallowed something and can't swallow it or spit it out! It there anything I can do for her? :(

I currently have two tanks - a 25 litre and a 180 litre. I have a sucking catfish in my small tank but I feel like I should move him to my larger tank...he has gotten bigger and I'm sure he would be happier in a large tank. I want a small sucker fish or something else that's happy in a small...

Im still in the process of cycling my 180 litre tank...and I'm trying to work out my stock list. I will definitely have guppies and mollies, as I'm transferring them from my smaller tank. I would also like a school of tetras of some kind and about 6-8 glass catfish. I was originally going to get...

She's a Dalmatian, so if she does have a gravid spot I can't see it :/ I ask because I just found out that mollies can have more than one birth after a single mating as they can store the sperm. Firstly...is this true? And secondly... Does she look pregnant? She does seem to act pregnant -...

Black Quartz sand :) I am washing it now....says its already washed but it is so dusty!! How deep should the substrate be in my tank? Is 5cm too deep?

I know it's just a spot...but it freaked me out for a minute! The whole mollie is splotchy and then has this perfect little eye shaped spot right on her head! One of the other fry has one as well but I couldn't get a good photo as she is darker - and they just don't stop moving! Just thought I...

I just got a sucking catfish to help with the algae in my tank. I gave him his first sinking tablet but all my mollies and guppies have spent the last 20minutes eating it. Can they over eat if they keep doing this? Is there a way around it?

I thought I should stop being lurker and say hi ^_^ I had a rough start to keeping fw tropical fish thanks to my then LFS who sold me a 25 litre tank and about 8 fish. They didn't even mention cycling. So after a lot of confusion and heartache I gave up the hobby pretty fast. I recently started...

Anybody have any experience using this sand? If not, what would you recommend? I like black sand and I've never used sand before, so a bit worried about it affecting my filter.

Have noticed one of my guppies has got a single white dot on his tail (which was not there before). He has not been scratching or anything. But could this be ich or white spot developing? He has had it for about a week. Should I raise temp just incase or wait and see if something else develops...
