Put it (female) in a bowl like the one you buy at the Mall with the plant, etc. she looked lonely to me, so I bought another female to keep her company, put it in the bowl, they were at each other for a while bumping, etc. they eventually calmed down, figured they were starting to get along. next morning the second fish was DEAD, does anyone think that the big fish killed her. The second one was very lively when I put her in the bowl, We can't figure out what happened. Does anyone maybe have an answer, I don't think I an going to put anoher one in there with her.

I have a guppy that is a dark orange/red in the rear and tail so I can't see a gravis spot but she is much bigger every day and swims with extra effort. Do all guppies get this spot or do I just have a fat fish? I can email pics if it would be easier.Thanks for the answers

We just got a bigger tank for my fish and one of them decided to go nuts and just swim in circles against the tank wall. He didn't do that in the old tank. Any suggestions?

All my fish were killed by some disease. So I used some hot water to clean the tank and want to start all over. Is the hot water good enough to kill all the disease?

I am wanting to eastablish an aquarium of neon tetras. I have limited space in which to place a tank. I already have three bettas in different 1 gallon bowls and I have a large indoor garden. My landlord is opposed to me obtaining a large tank. I am also a college student and I have extremely limited funds. What is the smallest tank you can keep neon tetras in? What are the minimum requirements for temperature, food, filtering, size, how many, about any infomation. I would love to raise a few of these fish but I don't want to but any if I will be unable to properly care for them. Are they compatiable with betta fish? Also where is a good place to buy healthy neon tetras? If someone could give me the complete run-down on how to set up the tank, the smallest I could use per number of fish (ex: 1 fish per x gallons), food, water changes, and water conditions that would be great. Any and all infomation is important to me in my research to decide about purchasing these fish.
