Will My Guppy Die?

[Tigsy]

shes swimming about with her head pointing downwards and tail up in the air
and also has a big pink lump coming out her bum. is there anything i can do?

 

[MrsM]

could be worms, constipation....a number of things, ca you post pics? some members may be able to help if they can see what they are dealing with...is the fish eating? what are your water parameters...try to include as much detail as you can...

Could be prolapse as well. Is she pregnant and squared off?

A picture would really help.

 

[WILDER]

A pic might help.
Poor thing.
Prolapse can be caused by fry being to big inside her, constipation, bacterial, internal parasites.


How is the fish now?

 

[Tigsy]

i took her to my lfs and they comfirmed it to be dropsy and euthanised her

her lump coming out her bum had gone clear but you could see veins in it and all her colouring had gone pale
her side turned red this morning n looked rather saw but she was still swimming about and eating

 

[WILDER]

Bless Her. Sorry for your loss.
