Kieflow Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Hello all, I am seeking some advice on what I might have going on in my 40 gallon breeder. Stocked are 6 baby bristlenose plecos, a trio of guppies, and a lot of shrimp. My male guppy started clamping his dorsal and tail fin, but neither of the females were. Upon a closer look into the tank I noticed one of my plecos has a piece of its tail missing plus a dot on the dorsal fin. So far I’ve pulled the guppy out and put him in a QT tank. Any suggestions are appreciated pH-7.2 Nitrates-10 Hardness-250ish Nitrite-0 Ammonia-0 KH/Buffer-80 Water Temperature-80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Your KH is on the low side for guppy's I would add some crushed coral to increase your KH does the spot on your bristlenose have a fuzzy appearance the tail lots like it ripped it. To should heal on it own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
