Why are my fish eating each others tail fins2007-11-24 23:43:47

They seem to pick on my Black Moors the most. 2 guppies killed 1 already. I removed them but now my small goldfish are doing it.

Yea Goldfish Are Said To Eat Live Foods, Small Animals And Other Fish, Adding Worms, Brine Shrimp Or Other Treats Should Take Care Of Your Problem. You'll Need To Feed Them Twice A Day. Just Enough Food That Is Completely Eaten In Under 2 Minutes With NO Leftovers, Anything Left Over Can Lead To deadly water conditions.

maybe they are hungry

The tank is too small for the number of fish. My fish all did this until there was one lone survivor, who did very well for a few years, till fin rot set in.

Im not completely shur, but i would get friendlier fish as tankmates. Guppys are fast so, they might pick on otherfish. I had a black moore when i was really young.i cant remember much about them, but i think mine was always a slow swimmer. Try putting it with a male or female betta. Mine is with gouriami, glass catfish, and swoardtails. Bettas arnt too fast at swimming either. Bettas really dont fight too often, occasionally theirs a fish they dont like, but it's a myth. !!WAIT!! They could be attacking because the tank is too small. Each fish needs a gallon of water per inch of it's body. Or, if you didnt see them attack, but fins are frayed and continue to be, it could be finrot. Finrot is from poor water quality. Go to your petstore for advice on medicine(to keep fungus from attcking), and to see compatible fish!! good luck.man.i write a lot!
