gf's guppies keep dying!

[blacktarotannis]

Ok... When you buy the guppies how long after do they die? Maybe they are sick when you bring them home?

thanks bro!! i'll try and see if she does haha..

so i got the salt and added it to my tank..so i'll keep everyone updated..but when i added the salt...it wasn't planeria..i seen planeria before..they're kinda small..and i dont think it's fish lice..becuase those look like little maggots..but anyways..they were all white..and they looked exactly like blackworms..

i can't figure out what they are..or where they came from..becuase i never fed blackworms in the 75gal..anybody with any input please let me know..thank you

if u dont mind me asking what is the fish in ur avatar

if your asking about jacobs avatar its a female festae.

Whats your acclimation routine? try a different LFS, also try the feeder guppies, imo they are a little more hardy, when you can keep them going, move back to fancy tails. I think the flashing your seeing is from fish that are already sick, keep a mild does of melafix/ prima in the water and see what happens. Def use salt with these guys.
