Hi
I have a 180 litre tropical tank with:
6 dwarf neon rainbowfish
6 harlequin rasbora
4 bumblebee gobies (freshwater)
7 neon tetras
7 male guppies
I have one or two male guppies that bully one other guppy so I moved the weaker one to a hospital tank to give him a break. I read somewhere that you should add lots of plants so the guppies can hide from each other. The tank I've put the 'picked on' guppy in is only 19 litre so I want to get him back soon really. I'm worried when I put him back they'll go for him again.
I've attached a pic of my 180 litre tank. Should I get some taller plants and dot them around. I don't add anything to feed the plants (the tall ones at the back are artificial) and they seem to be doing well anyway.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...?
Many thanks
