i have just brought four guppy fish for my tank . Three have died i have took the other one out of the tank and put her in one on her own . told the pet shop and they then explained that i was given the wrong advice :evil: as these fish were not compatable with the ones i have at the moment . The thing is one of her fins at the side has been nibbled . the rest are fine . It may seem a daft question but will her fin grow back ? If not will she die because it is damaged ?
It makes me sad because i will have to explain to the kids if its not in the bowl in the morning . bloody pet shops why don't they give the right advice . :cry: :cry:

nope it wont grow back, but shouldnt be a problem if it still has plenty left. i would go back to the shop that sold them you and complain tho :evil:

we had a koi that had a nibbled fin but she got an infection after a while and it went all fluffy and so she couldnt swim and died

hope it does not die :cry: :cry: i phoned the shop and they said bring the other one in when it dies and we will change it for one compatable with your fish . how cruel :evil: :evil:

say you want all 4 exchanged not just the one :evil:

bring it in WHEN it dies???????????? :? what sort of shop was it??????

well i would really carry on about this especially when it involves children getting upset. the petshop sound like they do not care about the animals. if i were you, like 6cats said i would want a refund or exchange for all four and an apology. hope it doesnt die for you

i made a huge complaint to pets at home when i took the kids in to buy a fish and there were dead ones just left lying in the sink!!!! i didnt get anywhere :? i was really ignored...
wouldnt go there again to buy animals as they are just to make money !!!

i dont think there are many decent pet shops these days ie pets at home and pet city etc, they are all, like pl said, out for the money.
when i were a lass :lol: pet shops seemed to care about the animals that they kept, even if the one i used to go to had a monkey that bit me :shock:

babycakes, go back, DEMAND a refund, then go to russells he is really good, has expert knowledge, he seems to know everything about anything where pets are concerned.

:cry: :cry: :cry: the fish died have not told the kids yet . it was so sad watching it suffer . i could not do anything to help it . got them from pets at home . i am going to e-mail their head office :evil: they need to train their staff better . it's such a shame because they did not have to die like that
