My three female guppies stay at the top of the tank is this bad? I wouldn't want them to die I only got them on Wednesday 8 june

Better than being on the floor tho.

Opps, better make more than one line.

If you notice the shape of their mouth, you will realize that they are surface feeders.

So being at the top may signal that they are waiting for some food.

OR maybe

Short of oxygen.

If there's ammonia present in the tank they'll be short of oxygen

could be short of aeration problem. also, do you have lots of other fish ie bigger fish in the community tank? is the air current too high that them hard to swim around? sometimes guppies feel insecure and stay on top as a group. best to keep a guppies tank itself.

My guppies are swimming at the bottom and the top

phew.

Hi Chakuna,

Does your dad have a digital camera at all? If he does maybe he can help you take some photos of your tank, and you can post them here on the forums. People may be able to help you better if we can see what you've got there.

Glad the guppies are doing ok..

Yes he does,but its broken at the moment

Opps, better make more than one line.

Off topic I know but are one-liners frowned upon? Cause I do it all the time

Cheers

No Jude but he was growled at when someone mistook a serious one liner for one of his smart ones and it got deleted.
