Fish Crazy
I bought 3x female guppies last night, 2x koi variety and 1x blue who is larger than the others considerably. Anyway put them in last night after acclimatizing them and I noticed straight away that the 2x koi ones were not swimming with the blue one in fact when they went near she would chase them off now and again, the aquarium is planted so they had somewhere to hide. I waited a while and tried a tiny bit of food, they didn't seem massively into it but it still got eaten but one of the koi ones didn't touch anything. Got up this morning and one of the koi ones is at the bottom lying on its side, I thought it was dead so moved it it swam a little and fell back down. PH is 7, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 10.
The two koi ones look very young and I'm not 100% certain the blue female isn't pregnant so have attached a photo.
1. Is this blue one pregnant? could that explain her aggression towards the others?
2. Have I just got a bad batch?
The filter outlet was pointed at the surface last night but they didn't seem to like it so I moved it down, I am using an air stone with an output of 100lp/h so I don't think oxygen is a problem.
They have only been in for 12 hours? 2 seem fine.
