The water is warm but I have an aeration filter and a aerator/bubbler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a 40gallon tank with about 3 dozen females of varying age mostly above 6 months though. Lately I've lost some of my best girls for some reason...especially when they get close to birthing time. This started 4 weeks ago and I've lost at least 14 fish. How they look when they die is mouth...

I have many guppies that I've bred that either have under desirable traits or bent spines and deformities, at the moment they are in a 20 gallon tub with a filter, aertor and heater and are fed regularly. Any ideas on how I should cull these guys? (Please keep moral code or whatever out of this...

Female guppy give birth Different Male guppy mates with her Would this mean the old males sperm would be replaced? Or is that not the case? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes I know it sounds gruesome but out of curiosity could you realistically stop females gestation short? My reason I would want to do this would be to start fresh and choose the males she mates with... I'll be trying different things to some of my females out of science. Such as cooler or cold...

This has happened to me before... the egg like objects are actually aborted fry... the guppies usually abort their fry if they get too stressed. The same thing happened with my first guppy Mom, she became very pregnant, but would only birth those egg things and eventually she just died from the...

The parameters are pretty good, nitrate is higher as usual around 23. But the other goldfish are somewhat active and are usually swimming about while he hangs out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He's eating a little less, The other goldfish grab the food before he does has a chance to grab it... but other than that he looks healthy and he isn't clamping his fins. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

One of my goldfish in my 80 gallon has been resting under a rock for quite some time. He is still alive, fins aren't clamped and he's very vibrant. His tank mates ( also goldfish) are pretty active but sometimes go down with him and chill in the one corner for hours at a time. Since it is winter...

Thanks so much! But do you know how much this would cost? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am building a crawfish/crayfish breeding tub (14ftx8ft). I am planning to make a hiding place for the crawfish to grow and molt as well as grow plants the crawfish can eat. I cannot spend over 100$ on this. The substrate must be cheap to buy in bulk, hold plants, and cover at least 50 cubic...

Cool I am glad they aren't bad. The guppies like to eat them so I guess there here to stay. Thanks for the help y'all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Low/mid light, goldfish tank, good filter, gravel substrate... the algae is green and hard to get off... what is this algae? Also side note::: do tanks under go seasons? Because during the cooler months of the year I get a lot of algae that shows up as well as in the spring. But over the summer...

I have a slightly planted tank I guess. It has high lighting, sand substrate, java ferns and this weird brown algae that makes a I guess hard layer of sand. Also the guppies like to eat it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Inexpensive, small, easily bred, good for tank environment Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I breed my guppies all random and I see some awesome crosses, mix matches and traits...I don't have anything wrong with breeding true but why is it such a big deal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe she's just finished... she was probably birthing for around 2-3 hours because every 5-10 minutes she gave birth to about 2 fry at a time. Last ones came out around 4:35pm(east) and she hasn't had any more since. I now have 34, also I did move her, but I do not have another tank so I...

Around 20 born Could the mother have eaten a few? Or is the round mom still birthing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is it genetic or is it due to handling with the net? Is it water quality issue or tank size issue? Space issue? Help I don't know I've had to cull half my July fry. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well the bumps are on the sides... None have shone up on the head tails or fins... Ammonia is at 0.05 Nitrite at 0 Nitrate at 17 Ph 6.7 And hardness I don't have anything to test that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Help my goldfish has weird pussy bumps on sides. They look like pimples and are squishy and easy to I guess pop. The goldfish is in perfect health and is very active. He's about 4 inches with 7 tank mates who are also all healthy. I have them in a 160 gallon tank so I know it's not that... I...

I'm trying to move some fry that where born yesterday without hurting them too much. What should I use? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes I have two, but I also have many pond snails who are very good with cleaning up. Both plants are small. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk https://vimeo.com/182681357 These are most of my guppies... They are set up in a 40 gallon with a heater, double airstone, back whisper filter and...
