I feel awful and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I had two fish that looked exactly alike except their coloring was different. First the brown one was swimming funny, he was constipated and died. I tried feeding them less food, thinking I was overdoing it. A couple months later, the orange one did the same thing. He had what looked like a darkish mass in his belly and he was swimming funny, all listless, and one day he was dead.
My last three fish are a cory catfish, female betta (very placid), and a guppy. This morning, I fed the fish and the guppy looks all bloated, has what looks like a dark mass in his belly, a string of feces coming out and he's just kinda hovering around and acting all listless. Cory and Betta are fine.
I feed them once a day. The "pinch" thing is stupid because I can pick up quite a bit of food with 2 fingers, I wish I knew exact measurements. Anyway, I only give them a "teeny bit." I give them Tetley's flake food.
What am I doing wrong?
