What fish will go good in my tank? - Aquarium Advice

lightningryan · 07-29-2005, 01:57 PM

What kind of other fish would go good in my tank?
I have 3 fancy guppies, 3 neon tetras, 3 black skirt tetras.

Some fish I was told were Mollies, Swordtails.
Will those work?
What other fish?
Could I put in other types of tetras? which kinds you reccomend my my tank?
Which specific kinds of the breed (example of what i mean by kind of breed : kind - Green Cobra, Breed - Guppy)

What size is your tank? Do you like corys?

you need a 30+ gallon tank to move your fancy goldfish to..

I would consider perhaps 3 smaller Corydoras cats or a school of 5 pygmy Corydoras cats, but then you are pretty much done for the capacity of that 15, especially if your guppies start reproducing.

where did you see fancy goldfish? I wrote fancy guppies!

Would any other type of tetra work in my tank?

I'd say that you could add some Tetra's. Nix the molly, it needs a 29 [acronym:fc53fcd9ea="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:fc53fcd9ea] + tank. Corys are a good option also.
