    guppy tail injury

    I think my guppies don't like each other... we have two males in a 20G together with 7 neons, 3 cories and a snail. The tank is brand new and went through a fishless cycle. Last Friday we did a huge water change and added the fish. Water parameters have been checked every 12 hours since and...
