soo i had started a little guppie breeding farm hd 1m 1f to cycle the tank ad the fish maybe 4 2 3 weeks outta no where the female died they were healthy the day b4 n their colors were really showing i was like maybe the male was picking on her now the m dies today nd i was like wtf>>???
 
How's the water? I don't see fish used for cycling dying to be that "wierd".
 
That is weird. The male could have picked on her but I don't think to death.

Thats what i was thinking, since just cause a fish is known to be hardy, doesn't mean its immune to the effects of ammonia and all the other nasty things that happen during cycling... otherwise it could just happen to have been a weakened/sick fish before you got it???
 
but these fish had been in there 3 almost 4 weeks no signs of sickness the day they died they were showing super nice coloring i think the female was preg because she was extra big fthe wierd is how the fish totally healthy just died over night 1 after the other
 
Maybe they weren't totally healthy. Have you tested the water?
 
i used water from my already established 55 and i had their filter on my 55 to help cycle it they seemed healthy ?
 
Then my guess would be that it was a sick fish which probably had an underlying problem before you got it and the problem didn't surface till you got it home...

although, come to think about it, could it have been caused due to over-feeding by any chance???
