Hi, yeah, all others are fine as normal....just so strange with this one. :/ Its one of those things that i will always wonder about and put down to experience. Shall be watching the others very closely.

Hi Bexx , sadly she died last night after not being able to part with the fry. They got stuck and i felt very helpless. :sad:

Hi Bex thanks for that, she is still huge and cant see any fry to be honest. Good point about my stats. They are as follows Ph 7.5 ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate below 20ppm. Temp 24-26. :good: Good luck with your fry bexx

Hi all, advice and ideas please. One of the pregnant platys is due to drop anytime. She has for this last week been very unsociable and stayed in corners, near the heater etc....not too bothered with food although she will still eat, but what is confusing me is that she is swimming then resting...

Hi many thanks for your replies. We have 3 males and 9 female guppies. I have been watching them all closely this last hour and it's not just the female guppies hes having issues with,but all of the other fish. Very strange behaviour for my tank,he's even attacking the plants and rocks whilst...
