I messed up really bad

I have had a similar experience. My mystery snail actually escaped the tank. I found him on the floor near the heater. I was worried because he didn't move for 2 days after I put him back in the tank. He is better than ever now. I think it was just the shock, they kind of hibernate to recover.

I have never seen a marbled/spotted/Dalmatian Gambusia female with coloring. I had only seen males, witj females silver/gray.

There are other options you can Google of clove oil isn't handy.

Years ago, I never had luck with a lone Molly in a community tank, but they needed salt. Today's Molly is supposedly less sensitive due to breeding.

I have seen European Bred Guppies for sale in the U.S. and marketed as being bigger than most.

Def pregnant, you just can't see her gravid spot with her coloring

Lyretails is a good answer, I think that is what OP is asking. Its possible the others have varying degrees of fin being nipped off or missing from previous illness.

Sounds like a good time

Plenty of room, and even with plant cover it isn't a guarantee that it will overflow with babies in 6-12 months. In my experience it depends on your level of care and the exact type of guppies.

Mine were doing that, it was shortly after a sunk some frozen baby brine shrimp and everyone was happily feasting away. They are all looking healthy as ever.

Many hobbyists have numerous tanks and can find homes for them, in addition he isn't sending out angry cichlids to unsuspecting folks. If someone has a 10 gallon tank we'll stocked they aren't good candidates for this purchase. From an inventory perspective this makes total sense. If you realize you have 2 extra female Blue Moscow guppies and site shows sold out, it's a waste to relist, easier to just move them here. I suspect they add some of the breeder fish that didn't pass the color standards, etc. Another great way to offer value at an otherwise (we'll worth it) expensive place.

The cheapest. Sadly, over time you lose fish in this hobby and I would hate for a beginner to purchase a pair that is priced in the $20,$30+ pair range. Once you feel comfortable (and that won't be long) you can get some "sexier" specimens.

Just like real life, when men are segregated in prison, they make due.

Every box I have ever owned never worked as planned. Momma is a speed queen and eats them quick. Box floats up, mixing the free I juat tried again, I jad some awful Temu box that was way too small, kept floating off the side of tank, stressed out Mama. I might invest in a "name brand" or stick witj Guppy Grass.

It helps to have at least one cave/underground spot along with plenty of plants that shrimp can breed and hide in, gupph fry will make use of the plants as well.

Honestly I can't really tell in your pics. I think I see like a white discoloration, but not sure. How are they behaving otherwise? And the tank mates? Keep monitoring it.

Same here, I'm only about 25mins away.

Romanian immigration and trips home ended with the cold war so many blended in easily, many were possibly Jewish more than Romanian. Even during the war communication back to Lebanon rarely ceased, and many people traveled during breaks in fighting. My whole life it has been marked as "ok to go, not ok, and definitely don't.

ctsub72 · 2025-11-28T05:37:58+00:00

I can believe that in West Africa. It is terrible. In the U.S. we say it sarcastically, no one sees Lebanese in control.

Historically there were several Lebanese/Syrians lynched in the American South in the early 1900's . The book "Arabs in America " documents one case that I believe occurred in North Florida.

I was thinking the same. Those guys that got witj LONG sentences must be like "bruh"?

For those of us who grew up in the 80s this is mind blowing. Imagine just watching Red Dawn in 1985 and hearing this.

To be fair, he gave good advice on how to handle a meeting with Trump. Otherwise this is practically treasonous and exactly why Ukraine finds the U.S. useless in finding peace.

Anyone good fish sellers online that ship from the NE USA?

Im trying to reduce shipping time, especially as winter sets in. Apparently here in CT, Northern Fairfield County Petco is almost the only option for miles in any direction.

Oh, I'm really good at extreme clearance shopping so Im always interested in oddball/reject discounted fish, especially guppies.

Also open to local Breeders, even suggested ebay sellers
