My last guppy got eaten by a cichlid :( rip mini gup. I don't want this one eaten I got 29G which it is in cichlid bullying it. Got 10G with platy fry also got homemade breeders trap fry can get in+out idk what to do!
 
Put the guppy in the homemade breeder, supposing that it is not able to escape it
 
What kind of cichlids are they? Generally cichlids should only be kept with fish of the same size and temperament... Guppies really arent a good mix with them.

I agree. Don't put the guppy with the cichlids. IMO the best place is in the breeder thing. Can you describe the breeder for us? Does it sit in the ten gallon? What's it made out of?

Put it in the breeder. Why are you keeping guppies and cichlids together? You're asking for a problem. Not to be rude.

If you put it in the breeder it could only be there a couple days at the most. That would really stress it out

Holy crud, thats not good. Get rid of those fish and put the guppy in the 29. A 29 is WAY to small for both fish, even if they are small

I have an answer. Stop buying fish on a whim. Trade the guppy in if you don't have a permanent home for him.

Friends gave em to me!
 
Still the same thing. Dont take in fish you can't give a proper home.

That Jack Dempsey should not be in a 29 gallon tank, anyways. They need more space. The blood parrot would be fine if he were by himself...
