Something bad happened to my guppy, please help!

That makes sense. I was feeding 3-4x a day but have cut back to 2x. I worry about the babies being hungry.

I feed my fry twice a day in the baby tank and have no issues, the water is as clear as can be [emoji3]

Just guppies right now. Have a few yellow, about 7 or 8 orange ones and a ton of bluegrass from a winners strain. I can't wait to see how pretty they look once they mature. Too bad I won't have room for all of them! I also have a pregnant platy and I think a pregnant Molly. Babies are so much fun to watch!

Oh wow, didn't know that you already have babies! Yes, they are precious. I've been watching my brichardi babies watch over their younger siblings. It's so neat!

I have a 7 year old daughter and sometimes when she comes over she barely says hi to me before bolting over to the baby tank to see how their doing. Kids these days...

He's just jealous!!!

By the way, the water in my tank looks MUCH clearer already and I haven't even installed the purigen or new filter! I'll be sure to send a pic later to see what you guys think.

Glad to hear that. Once you put Purigen, the water will be even clearer, and you can go longer between water change.

Hmmmm, never thought of his comments like that. LOL Hormone crazy teenagers! LOL

I'm so glad you went with the AQ110. This is great news. I bet your fishies are so happy!

Admittedly, I do have a pretty messed up sense of humor...

I'm sure I'll be happy with the 110 too, I just didn't feel like shelling out $80 for another filter. *grumble**grumble*

I think you went to town with the AC 110. It's good to have at least 2 filters on any tank, so you can stage filter cleaning and still won't affect the fish or water quality.

AC 110 might be too much for a 36 gallon though. I was thinking more than an AC 70.

I guess we'll see tomorrow once it gets here! I saw the recommendation and went with it, plus I'm sure I'll upgrade to a larger tank at some point.

Good thinking. :emt_thumbs:

I like your humor.

I know what you mean though. I just got my AQ and I'm about ready to throw the biowheel on the other side of the tank out in the street, but that will mean that I have to get another AQ. grrrrrr Such an expensive hobby. lol

I didn't know that you could go longer between water changes. That would be great for when I'm sick.
