about a week ago i got 3 guppys. 1 male and two females. they are in a 28l tank. dont think that is over stocking it, its heavly planted. anyway the two females are doing brilliant. one is heavly pregnant and the other is fine. both swim aroudn all day never stopping having a good time. but then...

is my guppy pregnant? heres a video to help decide. she wouldnt stop moving so not the easyest to see. http://s923.photobucket.com/albums/ad71/adamcrago/?action=view&current=MOV00524.flv

im soon about to buy a new tank, its the elite 95 if you know it. if you have one or no information on them that would be good to know :) anyway i was just wondering when its filled up with water will it be okay on my large glass tv stand. because its an extra £60 for the stand and dont want to...

thanks for thay guys sounds like the frozen would be a better idea! dno if my fish would eat it if it went to the bottom but i might give it a try. also i just found u can buy dried bloodworm! has anyone tried this? would they recommend it? does it float? cheers people :)

does the frozen bloodworm float or sink? my danios dont really like going to feed fromt he bottom they like it on the top of the water. how much does frozen bloodworm cost? and why do it a day before a water change? is it messy? does it mess the tank up alot if uneaten? thanks for the reply :)

i have 5 zebra danios and ive read that once a week or so its advised to feed them some blood worm. always was thinking about feeding them bloodworm anyway. but i dont want to buy some frozen stuff and ive looked on ebay and its a good price to buy blood worm pellets. will this do the same job...

hmmm would be nice if i knew when and how to keep them alive if she does have eggs. i have a spare old tank set up, just incase i see it happen would be good to and raise some youngsters. they will get eaten in my main tank. but thanks anyway if anyone else can help that would be good but if not...
