Y is some of my guppy dissaper?
They're being eaten. If you want to keep fry it is best to keep them in a nursery. Rule of thumb, if it fits in the mouth it will be eaten. The parents will eat their own fry.
Reply:Um yeah, it's called the food chain.
Reply:grown up fish will eat the babies. its best to get them a really good hiding place if you don't have a separate tank. a big clump of java moss works great.





snails are hard to get rid of -- you have nothing that eats them so they are happy. a clown loach or puffer will take care of them. a puffer would probably take care of all your fish too though.
Reply:They were hiding from your bad spelling, trying to find you a dictionary.
Reply:your bigger fish might be eating them if they don't have appropiate hiding places, like rocks, plants, and caves or rocks. And snails are prolific breeders, I recommend you to sell your snails to a pet store and keep the ones you want.
Reply:I cleaned my tanks today and had over a dozen fry in the power filter. If they die the snails will eat them? Where else could they be? %26gt;%26lt;%26gt;:)
Reply:fish are fish food
Reply:The neon tetras are probably eating the guppies.
Reply:Yea once they died the other fish will nibble away at them until there is nothing left.
Reply:I go thru this every year.... don't know why it happens. and I never find dead fish. wierd huh?
Reply:Your snails, they're eating them. Murderers.
