Ok , so here's the deal . *70* gallons of community fish and only the femal fancy and feeder ( had to save the poor feeders ) guppys have a white flesh eating desiese ( thinking it could be white fungus ?? ) . But what is it if I'm wrong and what should I do , and why is it not effecting the other fish and the male guppys ?? I don't have a quarantine tank and need help on this one :( !! Any help would be awsome . Thanks *celebrate

I would recommend you treat with either Melafix (may or may not work) or Jungle Fungus Clear tablets (may stain gravel/ornaments). IME, the tablets work well on this kind of disease, and aren't too expensive.

If you have a 70g tank, I would definitely recommend a quarantine/hospital tank, as it will save you both heartache and money. Feeder guppies are notorious for diseases, and may have infected your tank.

Good luck :)
