Just a little update. Hulk has chilled out and his eyes have lost the black rim and are now regular colour. He's now mixing with the others too. We've renamed him Bruce, but we just won't make him angry!

That's very interesting! I have a little bugga who is constantly harassing the other guppies. One of which died, (See my YouTube link. The black-tail is now MIA). Must check their eyes now and be prepared.

I did the weekly water-change tis morning and after that I saw that 4 out of my 5 guppies had black eyes. Later, this afternoon, their colour is back to normal. Maybe the change occurs when they are stressed.
