I have had nothing but trouble with my Swordtails. Guppies & Mollies I have no trouble. I have a 55 gallon and a 29 gallon tank. Have had fish for years but decided I wanted swordtails again and everytime I get them (usually 3 at a time) they don't live very long. I have only them in the 29 gallon wondering if the mollies were bullying them but still they aren't doing very well. Any suggestions? I use salt, I change the filters am would really like to know what I'm doing wrong as I love these fish.

Hmm. That's a tough one. So you currently have 3 swordtails in a 29 gallon? What are your water parameters? Perhaps the water quality is the reason they aren't making it... otherwise, I have no clue. I will promote your post if water quality is not the issue. Hopefully we can help you figure out what's going on.
