I have 9 male endlers and they're all super bloated (definitely all male so no chance of pregnancy). I feed them hikari micro Pellets and they also eat baby neocaridina shrimp and algae found in the tank. They are not pineconing and are not struggling with buoyancy at all si i don't think it's dropsy. I used to have 10 but one died a few (maybe 5 or 6) days ago. It also had nothing wrong with it, but it wasn't bloated. What could it be and how can I help them? Sorry for no photo I have a shitty android phone and the photos are all too blurry. (I drew what they look like instead)

Help! Newbie here.
We have planted fish tank. And lately there's brown algae. We regularly do water change (we use stock water) and clean the tank. Fixed 6 hrs of lighting.
Also tried doing manual removing of algae. But it keeps on spreading. ?
How can we have a clear water fish tank again? And it feels like the plants are now dying because of it.. ?
Also, what can be the cause of this brown algae attack? ?

I’m hoping to get some glass belly guppies soon and while looking online at the options available to me (in the UK) I’ve noticed that some guppies not listed as glass belly appear just as transparent, if not more so, than their glass belly friends.
Googling is getting me nowhere unfortunately :/
Could anyone explain what’s going on here? I understood that blonde was a base colour (usually seen on the head and body) but some of the blondes have a yellow hue whilst also looking very clear.
It also looks as though many of the albinos I’m seeing look transparent.
Are they only showing young f ..read more

I have 7 male and 3 female guppies. This was not my intention, I can elaborate more if it helps. They are in a 30gal tank with one black Molly. One female guppy is pregnant and due anytime now, one isn’t quite so far along. The third female looks like she has scoliosis and doesn’t appear to be pregnant. I know the ratio is supposed to be 1:2/3 male to female so here’s my question, Should I: Wait it out and see what happens with the pending fry? Get rid of some of the males?(if so, how?) Or just add more females?
I also have four black molly fry in a little one gallon tank setup, I had two adu ..read more

I'm new to the hobby here, and had my first batch of guppy fry one week and a half ago! Can't really stop looking at them now, I think I might get addicted. This is a 3.2 gallon tank (12L) and has no filter. I have to prune the plants, but I'm leaving it for now. What do you think?
