    First time with neons

    I see, thank you. The gourami (eclipse) has been pretty chill since he killed the other..(no guilt)

    First time with neons

    Of the dead one or the school? I’ve already disposed of the dead one, sorry (if that’s what you meant). They all look identical to me, however I could have missed something. Is it possible the store confused some cardinals with neons and I didn’t notice? Do the species get along or could that...

    First time with neons

    Hi! I originally had two Gouramis, sadly this one beat the other to death... I do not have sand as substrate, I prefer river stones or large gravel. I’ve also never had cories but I do like them and the lfs sells quite a few. That one particular store has a lot of different types of fish. I...

    First time with neons

    Hi! So, I just went down to feed them as usual to discover one tetra with its “throat” ripped out and it’s head near eaten. The bite was too small for the gourami so I assume it was another tetra... At the moment I’m using test strips and I cannot find any measurements on our water supplier’s...

    First time with neons

    Thank you! As for the number of fish, would I have room for any other peaceful types? Livebearers, more tetras, algae eaters, snails? If not, I will add more tetras. I don’t want to overstock, but I love having lots of fish. Thanks again!

    First time with neons

    Hi! So for a 20 gal tall, I’ve got a dwarf gourami and seven neon tetras. For the tetras, I have a small school of 7. My questions are: how many can fit in a 20 gal, considering the gourami. Also, one of the tetras seems to be a bit of an outcast, is this normal? There is another one that will...

    Squared off guppy?

    Hi! Hasn’t been too long, but I’d say it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything.. So this is Equinox now, and I feel like she’s gotten bigger..also, at the moment she’s not as nervous looking. About worms, are they dangerous to the health of the fish, or do they just make them bigger? Would...

    Squared off guppy?

    Thanks! I had kept a 10-20 gallon tank years ago when I was younger, and I got the guppies from my next door neighbor who also had a problem with population. Anyway, the tank was later given away, but since it was so long ago, I lost any knowledge of guppies I had before (the reason I joined...

    Squared off guppy?

    Hi guys! Seeing how it’s been a few days, thought I should update on the situation... No questions, but she still looks the same. Thank you guys for helping me and answering my many questions. Again this is just an update so no questions I need answered. Thanks!

    White spots on dwarf flame?

    Hi! So, instead of a pair of honeys, I was only able to get a pair of dwarf flame Gouramis (love them both). Up until today, everything seemed to be going just fine. However, I just fed them and realized that one of the two had white spots on its side. I can see they are ever so slightly raised...

    Hi! Thanks. She still looks the same, gravid spot and all, so I’ll just tell myself no more fry and just keep an eye on her.

    Hi! So does that mean it could be either? I first saw the fry on Saturday night, so it’s been quite a while...

    Squared off guppy?

    Hi! Sorry to say, but right now she’s the only female. (I admit I bought her impulsively). I’m almost certain the little one was eaten... She still looks the same as before, no change in shape, still a dark gravid spot. Is it possible for her to have only had a few early and held the rest? I can...

    Squared off guppy?

    Oooh cool! It’s been a couple days (sorry) and I’ve been watching for any fry..but so far I haven’t seen anyone since I lost sight of the little fry. I’m afraid he was eaten, or still hiding like a fish ninja XD Also, since I noticed the fry, my guppy (her name is equinox, I feel weird just...

    Thank you! I list sight if the little one and haven’t seen him since, but he is really cute! Just got back from the LFS, didn’t look for him again yet.

    I found a single fry today! I didn’t expect it to be so small! I only found one though, I think the others ate the rest or the guppy still has more to go, but she seems so skinny now..

    Squared off guppy?

    Yes, thank you! This is her now, it’s only been a few days so she hasn’t changed much, though she does enjoy hanging out in the back of the tank but still always comes to the front. Are fake plants ok for the fry to hide in? Again, thank you!

    Squared off guppy?

    And I’m back again, another question if you guys don’t mind: what are some behaviors my guppy would show soon before having fry? I’ve read some, but they all say things like “might do this” or “not all the time”. Are there any things you know for certain she would do? I know every fish and...

    Squared off guppy?

    Hi, it’s been a while since I was last here! I know I ask a lot of questions that probably seem off I guess, but would you say my guppy would get much bigger than this?

    Squared off guppy?

    Hi again! So I’ve been watching my female guppy closely now and I noticed she got bigger but I still can’t tell if she would be “squared off” or if it’s just her shape. If someone could tell me if this would classify as “squared off”, I would appreciate it. Also sorry for the blurriness, she...
