Guppy hiding

[Lamie]

My guppy is hiding not coming out for food. It looks thin. Probably being bullied by the danio. It's the only one in the tank with danios and platys. Should I get a couple more guppies as mates or not worry about it?

 

[Lamie]

It's lying on the floor. Will I come back to life?

I always remove a sick fish. you could put it in a jar with some of the tank water. Don’t get more guppies while this one’s sick.

Probably not. But maybe so. I’m sorry. Poor little guy.

I'm pretty annoyed with the danios. I feel like rehoming all of them. My water is soft so live-bearers are out I understand but I like them. The LFS said that it doesn't matter really but you guys say different. The platys are having babies and seem to be doing ok though.

Maybe if I surrender the 4 big danios now the guppy will not be so stressed and survive. He's swimming but not looking very good at all. Thanks

He was only swimming to find a place to hide

He’s looking better? That’s awesome!

You can’t somehow separate him?

I can put him in a bucket of tank water ?

I would wait on buying more fish and making sure your aquarium is ready, cause if that fish was sick then it could spread in the tank, do you know your water perimeters? And your tank size

I might leave home in the tank. He's hiding. If he dies then I will have to find him and remove him.

I might take the big danios to the lfs asap.

 

[Lamie]

Yes! I’ve put ones in large glass jars, using the tank water. And a hiding plant if that what he’s used to.

Ok I will try that
