Guppies (justa update!)

My baby guppies are huge! The biggest one is a female. She was the only one that I caught that day. She has a phantom gravid spot. Phew! Good thing it's fake! In about 2 weeks I will be able to put her back into the main tank. My female guppy gave birth the night I was not home. I wasn't able to save any :( boo hoo! But that's okay! I have plenty already! Before I got my guppies, I think they were inbred. Because most of my guppies are deformed. Oh well I'll bring some new blood in!

Dropsy o.O

Dropsy is a disease that fish can get. There is no cure to dropsy. It's kind of like cancer. But not all the time you die with cancer. Dropsy has a high percentage that your fish will die. My guppy had it and she died.

Symptons: bloating, scales sticks out so the fish looks like a pinecone, eyes pop out, bulging stomach and sides,

Dropsy is not a disease it's more of a symptom. For all intensive purposes we will call it one. It's really an internal bacterial infection usually caused by poor water quality.

Treatments: Dropsy is not very contagious; however, Fish usually die from this, but in some cases where the problem is due to bacteria, if detected early enough, it can be treated.
It's possibly the hardest internal bacterial infection to cure. There are a number of medications available such as penicillin, tetracycline and naladixic acid. The fish usually doesn't make it. By the time the scales begin to raise, however, it is very fatal to the fish. Salt baths can help to draw the fluid out of the fish. A variety of medications can be purchased that treat dropsy, which sometimes occurs due to an internal bacterial problem. Medications for external bacterial problems only will not be effective for this problem.

If your fish does have dropsy, make sure you isolate that fish. Dropsy is not considered contagious. But just in case, you should isolate it.


Imma outta!

With the help of fishdeals.com!

Please comment and like!

LUVINGMYGUPPS!

btw im not obessed, just really bored ^____^

Here's a pic....

What do you wanna see a pic of? An Angelfish! These fish are gorgeous and great in most tanks! This is my Angelfish and soon I hope you'll get one too!
*they need a big tank to swim around in if they are with small annoying fish like mollies, tetras, glo fish, ect....
They eat tropical food.
Angelfish are NOT cichlids! But they do come from the same south waters as South American Cichlids.
Angelfish do get very big.
My Angelfish is in a 30 gallon tank with a few other tropical fish. A total of 12 ffish in a 30 gallon tank.
If you LOVE this fish like me and you have a suitable home for it, go get one!

Oooh ya sorry about the picture, it's not straight. :(

Problem with Molly!

Okay, I know this is not about my guppies which this whole website is supposed to be about.... But I'm going to talk about my molly this once.

So I had one female and one male molly. Both Gold Dust mollies. (I know I know, ratio has to be 3:1) But the male was half the size of the female and the female just ignored him and was fine. But then...

The gourami (Ugh) kept chasing the mollies. Everday. Then one day, the male molly mysteriously died! What happened?! Who knows? Well I figured it might be the gourami since he's chasing my mollies. LOL, it was halarious because the male molly was chasing the female and the gourami was chasing the male! :D

So I'm giving my gourami to a LFS for some store credit later today.

So after her 'beloved' died, my molly went on and on living her days. But she has this one itsy bitsy problem.

Every night she looks HUGE! But I don't put her in a breeder box because 1. the attacker gourami is in it AND 2. I let her have the babies in plants so she doesn't get stressed. So anyways the next morning I check my tank and she is skinny! But not like just had birth skinny, but like just got pregnant skinny. Like she was a week pregnant. What is wrong with my fish??!

This has happened almost once a week. She hasn't gave birth in 4 months. I know that because I see no fry and my tank is heavily planted with structures and fake plants.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY MOLLY?!

well i hope i find help soon.

imma outta herea!

Betta check no. 2

Okay so I woke up this morning and I looked into my big community tank. I remember putting the gourami in the breeder box. I checked on my betta to see if he was okay.

 

He seemed fine! :D Although he doesn't swim around the tank, he's healthy! So I just gotta watch the next few days... Wish me luck!


well i'm outta here! See ya!

How many tank per fish?

One inch of fish to one gallon.

 

So if you had a 10 gallon, you could have 10 fish! But of course some people over stock....

 

Like me... Oops! But my fish are very healthy. I only have 2 extra fish in my tank for the 1 inch to gallon thing. So I'll be okay. :)


Lol! Well i'm outta here!

New betta in community tank! Aggressiveness????

So when I went to PetCo, I bought a betta fish. He's gorgeous!! He's a Double Tail Male Betta. Amazingly beautiful! And I know I can put him in because I read the compatibility chapter in the book at PETCO. I know, geek I am. Anyways right when I put him in he swam into the corner. I kinda expected that though. You guys are probably like, no duh! Ya ok anyways the betta fish swam to the front corner of the tank. The gourami cornered him and started poking him with his tentacles stuff. I don't know what they're called. And the gourami started attacking him. Kinda like it was beating him up. So I put the gourami in a breeder tank thing. It was soooo hard catch! Well I guess that's it for now. Wish me luck.

Scared da heck outta me :O

O-M-G. When I came home from PetCo, I looked in my tank because I was going to feed my baby guppy fry who were in a breeding net, and I saw that a adult male guppy jumped in! I was freaking out! I quickly grabbed the net and scooped him out without taking any fry with him. Phew! That was a close one. I counted my fry. 19. Perfect! I guess when the male jumped in he was trying to get out so he didn't notice the guppy fry! How lucky am I?! Phewfta! o.O

My own baby gupps! (Guppies)

Aren't they cute?!?!? Anyone else have baby guppies?

How to tell if your guppy is in labor!! :S

 10 WAYS HOW TO TELL IF YOUR GUPPY IS IN LABOR 
LOL that was awkward ;)

1: Hiding in or behind plants

2: Not eating

3: Vicious nipping (my guppy chased other females, not just males)

4: Hiding in corners. Isolating themselves if with other guppies

5. Their butt hole will look bigger. They actually dilate! (o.O)

6: They shake. Also known as shimmying and shivering. These are contractions. (x2 o.O)

7: They arch their backs. (tail goes up, head pointed downwards.) They might shake a little.

8: Swimming around the whole tank. (Looking for a place to have their babies)

9:  If you expect someone is giving birth in your tank but you don't know who, sometimes in my tank I notice a whole bunch of guppies following one guppy. Most of the times that's the guppy giving birth. 

10: Laziness. They don't move as much.
