    Hi. I just got my first aquarium, and I put in two black molly fish two days ago. This morning I found that my female gave birth. I googled it and I was told to separate the big guys from the little guys so that's what I did. What do I feed the babies? Do I need to do anything different? Any...

    So I have this tank just sitting on the floor in the bedroom and I can't possibly think of what I could house in it, as it is only 1.5 gallons! Does anybody have any suggestions on what I could keep in it? A frog? Snail? Shrimp? Right now I own a goldfish [Ronald] and a pregnant guppy...

    Hi!! I just bought a female guppy as an addition to my 14 gallon tank. I think she may be pregnant. The more research I do, the more positive I am. However, I am not sure how far along she is. I read the dot before her tail has to be very black. It is, although I'm not sure how well you can see...
