Can these fish be together?

Hi all,

I have seven male guppies in my tank,

Is it possible to put pristella tetra's in with them? I heard they can fin nip.

This may also sound stupid, but will they also get the neon tetra disease (as they are tetras too)

Thanks,

They shouldn't be getting NTD unless there are neons in the tank already or have been living with the neon tetras at the local fish store that have the disease already. How big is your tank?

Tank is 20G. I forgot to mention I also have some corys too. Do you know whether pristella tetras go with them?

I don't see why not, pristella tetras should go fine in there. Good luck!

edit: question, how long has your tank been cycled and how long ago did you add some fish? If it's just been cycled and you just added some fish, I would wait a bit, but if not you should be good to go!

I'm still QTing them at the moment. So will find out in few weeks time. Thanks.
