5 gal- max guppies?

[DragonFish]

Hi. I have a 5 gal, and I had 3 guppies in it. Now I got babies from the guppies and managed to save 6 babies. right now, they're in one of those baby nets in the 5 gal (I know, tight fit).

is 9 guppies too many for a 5 gal tank? I really dont want guppies in my 20 gal since Im looking into gourami's and rainbows or killfish.

Yes, I think it would be. You can always feed the guppy fry to the larger fish, or your bettas.

hmm.. baby guppy food, live food. might work (though I'd feel bad, lol)

Sounds good, guppies aren't too messy so 9 will do fine in the tank.

If you have males and females you will just keep getting more and more babies.
