Hello all Lately My guppies have been swimming around top constantly like they are going to the surface to breath? I am not sure what's going on? All of my other fish are swimming normal....could they be sick? I am really puzzled!

They are probably just waiting for food, that doesn't mean that you should feed them all the time.

Thanks for the Replies I haven't tested the water in about 2 weeks but going to do so I just peeked in the tank and noticed something odd the Guppies that used to be small and short are long and thin? I never had guppys before but I went to the pets store to get feeder fish for my frogs and their tank was cracked but mentioned they had a lot of guppy babies they would sell 10 for $2.50 and by time I got them home they were to cute to feed to my frog! They have since breed and have had alot of babies!!!

Tried to post a picture but not working to good for me!

PH is perfect.... Nitrate was scary High....however the nitrite was in the safe zone! water was very hard too! I am just puzzled as to why its just my Guppy's that were affected!
