adding water? pregnant danios?

[ellie]

to start, got fish from genuine supplier......i know what im doing kinda people, ..........so got a molly and two danios, noticed one danio is increasingly fat! im wondering if she is pregnant although had her now for a month and shes huge but nothing else! also noticed tank water is getting lower in level by day, im so thick i wonder how you add more water without harming fish, i know i had to leave aquarium running for a month before i could add any....

id be really grateful

I've edited out your e-mail address - I don't think it relevant here.

you haven't changed water for a month?

is your tank cycled?
How big is it and how much water are you losing?

if you haven't add4ed any water in a month i'd say it's normal the level went down but by how much?

Ellie, I'd be glad to help; however I think asking people to email you is very suspicious. I would never give out my email address to a complete stranger, so I ask myself why you are doing so.

Hi Ellie,
The idea of posting a question here is to see the answers - this way everybody can learn something. I don't understand why you're asking for replies to be sent to your e-mail.

You state that you let the tank stand for a month before you added any fish but that doesn't mean that your tank has cycled. I suggest that you read the pinned articles at the very beginning of this section - it will tell you how to add water and how to cycle your tank.
