I could find no visible signs of an illness. He was listless for a couple
days and wasn't interested in eating. The guppy also sat at the bottom,
and
swam funny, which I understand is typical for dying fish. The other fish
in
my tank (including two other guppies) appear healthy and just love eating.
Also, I had one batch of baby ballon mollies, which eventually all became
listless and died, a few at a time over the span of about a week. Another
batch, of which there is only one fry left (his siblings must of gotten
eaten in the tank, but I eventually noticed him and put him in a breeding
tank), is very healthy and grew-up a lot faster than the other fry.
Could anybody give me any insights on this? I didn't find anything in any
aquarium books that helps. Is it likely there is any relation between the
baby mollies dying and the guppy? I was suspecting a batch of weak babies,
and not disease, because the fry from the other batch is thriving.
