guppy fins tearing

[deepesh]

For a guppy to die of fin loss means heavy damage to the fins.

Sometimes female guppies are not receptive to a males advances and if harassed too much they will turn tables on the male and chase them. After all mature females are easily 4 - 5 times heavier than males. Usually it's no harm done and often it's the male who is the instigator.

I'd keep a lookout for more quality guppies and compatible fishes.

BTW younger smaller males seem to be constantly going after the females, older ones often with longer larger finnage seem to lose the drive. <shrugs>

I lost one guppy, so i am going to give away those widow tetras and shift bumble bees to another tank. So this would all guppies tank. You never know what goes with what. And sometime these kind of unexpected things happen. I had even saw female guppy chasing away the male one. it was other way round.

Sorry for your loss bro
