my little baby guppy (okay, well, he's not technically a baby) died this morning. poor thing, I knew he wasn;t feeling up to par but I didn't really know what to do for him, except read up on fresh water and guppy stresses and diseases, and move him to the 3g hospital tank. I had given him a epsom salt bath for a few minutes in a 1/2 gallon fish bowl, then put him back in the 3g. his symptoms seemed to match constipation and I had not fed him anything for a couple days. he wouldn't eat anyway. poor baby didn't make it. makes me a little sad. So now just 2 guppies and 1 cory catfish in the 10g and for my betta I will buy a 3g tank just for him. right now, he is in a 1g. a little small, I know. anyway, that's it.

I understand how you feel. Sometimes a cause is hard to determine. I suggest a 50% water change and pick up a couple more Guppies for your remaining two. They seem to do better in small schools. Good luck and God bless.
