Just put into quarantine

I just put her into quarantine. She was just hanging around the bottom and started turning colors this AM. I don’t see any other of my friends with similar symptoms.

Guppy ID Neon Green Spot on both sides.

I just started with guppies, got a 6 pack of assorted female guppies (one was a male endler lol) one of the females developed the cool neon green spots on both sides. I’ve been trying to find info but green spots on female guppies sends back a lot of different info. Just curious if anybody here what she may be. She was tiny when I got her so I never really noticed them until recently.

Fish ID

This tiny fella appeared in my tank, I have a couple black neon tetras in my guppy tank. But didn’t really appear to be making babies.

Possibly a male?

This is my first time being a guppy tender. This came in a batch of assorted females. All the others were gray but this one (which is the tiniest of the lot) has some red and blue. Is it possibly male or do females sometimes just come out shining?

First Time Apistogramma Caretaker

I have 55 gallon and have some schooling fish in there but wanted something for a center piece and was suggested an Orange Flash. After a bit of research my parameters are good for them and the local fish place agreed and said the kind of fish that were already there would not be an issue so I purchased a male and female. In my other 55 I went with a few dwarf gouramis that are thriving but I wanted to try something different.

Unfortunately the male passed away after a few days so I was an absolute wreck but got another male and another female for luck I guess?

Well after two days another female passed away and the male was super lethargic from almost the moment I put him in ( moving very slowly and cautiously around the tank) Went back to the store and had them test all the parameters again to make sure I wasn’t messing up too bad but lo and behold everything g was dang near perfect.

So for the past few days I’ve almost been expecting the male to pass away while the female turned a beautiful bright yellow and was holding court in a nice cave.

So the past 18 hours or so the male has been moving around a lot more but I have noticed he runs into things a lot and it takes a while for him to grab food literally right in front of him. He is trying but keeps grabbing nothing at the sides until he finally stumbles on it. His eyes I’ve noticed are very foggy for lack of better terms. I think my guy is blind, is that something anyone has ever experienced before with one of their gilled friends?

Also I have no idea where the female is anymore, she would pop out often to check things out but alas, no more. It’s been about two days since I’ve laid eyes on her.

TL;DR I think my male is blind and my female is missing
