Hello,

This is a very sad story about my guppies. We started with 2 fancy guppies, and 3 common guppies that were babies Last week we did a water change and the heater got turned all the way up. (But we didn't notice at the time.) But anyway, we left for vacation and came back a couple days later, and guppies, were died and had holes in them. It was nasty. The freaky part is the 2 fancy guppies died, and the 3 baby common guppies survived.

I'm guessing that since the water temp was off the chart it had to be at least 90.

Very sad.

Next time check the Heater before you leave on vacation.

Yeah, I'll have to remember to do that. I usually do but I forget to do stuff.
