i was directed to your board, hopefully i can find some help somewhere :hs:
one of my red wag platys has been very lethargic the last 2 days. when she's not eating, she's under a rock just sitting there. there was no color change at first, but now from her gills to the underside of her belly is turning yellow, which looks like it is just her natural orange losing color. it's a 10 gallon tank, nitrites are at 0, nitrates 10 ppm, ph 7.5, temp is 78. i do 1/4 water changes every 5 days, and i just added 5 fancy guppies. her symptoms began a few hours after the guppies were introduced, which makes me think it's stree related the tank has been up and running for 2 months, 1 month with 3 platys alone. there was a bacterial bloom last week, btu it subsided on its own after 2 days. any help will be appreciated
