    Smile Hello, from Vancouver

    Hi there everyone, we started our fish adventure with a Beta (which by the way was eaten by some of my guppies) a year and a half ago. We now have a 33 gal and a 50 gal fresh water.
    A little more on the Beta story: he lived by himself in a fish bowl but was very lazy, didn't swim much (he literally just layed on the stones). I don't know but I think his fins were to heavy? any way we desided to put him in in our 33 gal with some guppies, tetras and algae eaters and see what happened. In two days he was gone...

    Anyway, it's great to be here and I'm looking forward to a lot of fish wisdom!

    If your looking for wisdom, then you`re in the wrong place! We all kind of make this stuff up as we go along! lol just kidding. Welcome aboard. There are plenty of people on here who have seen just about everything there is to see with aquariums of all types.

    Welcome to the tank!!!

    My guess would be the tetra nipped/stressed him out, & the algae eaters ate the carcass.
    What kind of algae eaters do you have?
    CAE/Chinese Algae eater are known to suck on live fish & I've seen my pleco sucking on dead fish before(lights out/ just before light on).
    Any of my old bettas would have killed any guppies.
