Problem with feeder fish!

[snakeman]

I always have problems with rosys dying.Feeders guppies have always lasted forever for me.I can put them in crappy water and they thrive no problem.The roseys die if the bag is a little overcrowded from the pet store.

well, from a store's perspective, it is the exact opposite. When provided with what they need, guppies seem much more prone to dying than rosies. Rosies of course will die if left unfiltered in a bag. They need constant running water to thrive. But if you overcrown a bag of guppies, the same thing will happen. Lack of oxygen kills any living thing.
