Guppies thriving well under natural sunlight conditions,similar experience to share?

[AngryBird]

Totally agree. I put a few flower pots outside, I get TC people knocking on my door. The following week, I get NEA coming to knock on my door. I dare not even put a tank outside.

[QUOTE=Asia_landscape;8616787]My guppies seem to be doing very well @ outdoor fish tanks.
No death and sickness so far.

Anyone have similar experiences too, could it be due to algae?

Nice setup bro. What are the strains of guppy you are keeping ?

This is setup before General Election.
so I guess all have seen it liao.

My neighbour sometimes do free WC for me.
And he put in feeder goldfishes all died within one week.
(due to lack of oxygen for gfs)

I guess it's a fine balance, green water (with algae) is good, but when the algae turns brackish and has foul smell, that's where the balance is affected. I did have that for my gf, but not guppy. Good for coloration.

Ethan, Thanks for your advice, i will have to look out.
What to do if that happens?

so far so good though.

sharing my limited knowledge, if hair algae (which is bad), you have to remove phosphate from the water. For Brown Algae, you have to remove nitrate through WC and having more plants in the tanks. Regular WC to ensure the chemical balance is important, it is also dependend on your fish population and how much feeding you are doing. Hope this helps.

Hope my new "outdoor" hobby can carry on undisturbed from authorities.
