Re: Guppies/ Fungus
Hello, it sounds like there is something more that is causing the fungus than simply stress, though that probably isn't helpng. There are many fungal treatments available at fish stores or Petcos. Before you purchase your next fish, run the medication through the tank first for a week to kill off anything that might be causing it. Then go buy your fish from a different store. Fungus usually attacks when there is a weakness in the fish, I've found that it is usually caused by a bacterial or parasite infection first. Also, when you choose your fish, watch the whole tank first. See if there are any unhealthy fish. If there is a massive amount of dead fish in the tank that is a good indication that you shouldn't get one of those fish. Also, look to see if the tanks are clean and well taken care of. Look up information in books in the disease section. I have one that is from the '70s that I still use for diseases. I hope that this helped a little and feel free to Private Message me!
