I am using Ehfisubstrate in both trays. In the top tray there are also a handful of ceramic rings mixed in. Bayshore water is a little on the hard side but usually never changes. I have a fire station on the next road so the are constantly opening up the hydrants to […]
Ok since my son received some guppies from his grandma the males have been just evil. We made sure to go get some more females so it was a 1 male to 3 female ratio give or take a few. He had a total of 13 guppies. The males have killed ALL the females twice […]

Hi dennis, sorry for your loss, had the same 2 years ago. I have missed something here, i dont see any post about your trouble, you mentioned imports from japan, you had KHV hit your pond? If so, you cant add anymore […]
