Does anyone else have problems with guppies? I've had mollies, platies and swordtails in the past with no problem, but I can't keep guppies alive. I'm trying again. I have 6 guppies in a fully cycled 29 gallon aquarium. I checked the water parameters a few hours ago, and they are perfect, yet the guppies are hanging on top, moving slightly, but not near as active as they should be.
The filter is an aquaclear 70 power filter. The temp is 74.
Sounds like your problem is stemming from the place your buying the Guppies from.Perhaps the stock he is selling is not good.Try another place and see what happens.
I found a family run pet shop that has fantastic guppies. I bought some today, and they are active, healthy and beautiful. I haven't had guppies this active in a long time. I think it was the stock. Keep your fingers crossed. I really want a guppy tank.:-D
