Aquarium Advice Addict
Need suggestions for sticking my son's 10 freshwater tank. What types and how many of each. Thanks.
emerald76 said:No they won't, just because they stay small doesn't mean they will be fine.They are aggressive fish and will kill each other.Also the mollies need 20 gallons.You could do three platies and nothing else.But if you want a community go with nanos. Also,is your LFS Petsmart or Petco?If so,I wouldn't listen to thier advice.It is bad IME.They told me that these fish would do fine in my ten gallon the first day I set it up-
2-platies
2-guppies
1-tiger barb
2-dwarf gourami
3-neon tetra
1-brown ghost knife
3-mollies
1-cory
They even said I could add an oscar if I wanted to.
Samzter said:Like others have suggested, mollies have a Big bioload. Guppies would work but they breed like rabbits!!!! Haahaa. I would do:
2 sparkling gourami
2 platies
3 guppies
And maybe a handful of red cherry shrimp or Anamo shrimp. If your getting livebearers and want them to reproduce get 1m guppies and 2 f guppy. If not just 3 male guppies . Hope that helps
