Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

Tailless Guppy

Hi All, One of my guppies has had the tail nipped off of them, I have moved it into a quarantine tank now to avoid further biting. Question is, will its tail grow back? I have a few guppies in the tank untocuhed. For some reason the platy took offense to this guys red tail :(

Once the 'spines' of the tail haven't been eaten, they should grow back.

Some Melafix and Primafix should help also, should be able to get some in any fishy petshop.
