I am having a big problem with my fancy guppy tank. First off we have a mixture of fish in the tank. One golden dojo loach, two cory's, four kuhli loaches, 4 golden apple snails and fancy tailed guppies. We have had this tank going with this same mixture for about a year now with no problems at all. We started out with two males and 5 females. They have successfully bred and multiplied. We have kept about 50 of the nicer guppies. That is until recently. Within the last 2 months we have lost all but 5 of the guppies. They have just disappeared. Something in the tank seems to have eaten them but we haven't been able to figure out which one it is. Does anyone have any experience with these different type fish as to know which one might have caused the dissappearance of most all of our guppies? I would like to be able to just get rid of the ones causing the problem instead of having to get rid of all of them.
 
I don't think any of those fish would normally attack your guppies. The dojo might, depending on the size, but again, not normally if otherwise well fed.
I suggest looking for another cause. If they died for other reasons, the snails would finish them off.
