100% sea loose change for my guppy fish?
I recently had a guppy in a small container. I moved the guppy to a 2 gallon bowl (approximately) for the mean time and it has been doing slightly well. However, the water has started to win cloudy for about a week and a half now. I've be trying to do about 20% water changes but its not really clearing up. Can I do a 100% dampen change like a do with my bettas? I'm worried that the shock could snuff the guppy.
NO BOWLS!
ok this was kinda unyielding to write step by step but it works.
*take a plastic bag and fill it up with the cloudy hose about 1/4 full.
*put guppy in there.
*clean out bowl and crowd with clean water.
*set guppy surrounded by the bowl and keep your guppy in the bag beside the cloudy water. (this is so he can addapt to the water temp.)
*untill the water surrounded by the bag is completley clear in the bag that is to say holding your guppy add the water that is within the clean bowl to the bag every hour.
*dump your guppy into the clean bowl and he will be without fault fine because he has adaptated to the water.
i did that and nothing happened so yea u can do dat
Yes you can budge ahead with 100% water change. But don't verbs the gravel or the ornament in tap marine.
The shock would probably kill it. 100% sea changes are bad. Your fish also needs a stove and a filter. Thats part of the problem if you don't have them. The cloudiness sounds close to New Tank Syndrome (NTS). It's a condition where your tank hasn't cycled yet (IE developed the microbes and stuff in the water that your fish needs.)

as long as u use de-chlorinator and the tempeture change isnt too dramatic he should be fine
Answers: You shouldn't do 100% water changes. EVER. Nor should fish be kept in bowls. They're cramped and specifically what's causing your poor water conditions.
