I wouldn't really recommend anything "energetic" in a 10g. Either they'll wind up spooking the fry or take off at high speed and the next thing is glass wall and dead.

Zebra or leapord danios. Very quick and tiny but not sure if they'll eat the guppy fry.

Not sure what energetic fish would do well in a 10g and not eat or disturb the fry, perhaps neons? Would a separate breeder net in the tank to isolate the fry be a better option? That way it doesn't matter what else is in the tank, the fry will be safe and you can keep track of them better.

Or fish other than bottom feeders what fish can i put in the 10 gallon

A small school of celestial pearl danios.

Are Celestial Pearl Danios the only fish that wont eat the fry and i decided to set all my fry free in my 10 gallon tank because my guppies had died from ammonia poisoning

You could get a knifefish, however, they might be too big for a 10g tank

I would recomend getting at least 3 more cories. Shrimp can be fun to watch

....what? Is this a joke? Do not get a knife fish.

What were the guppies in, and what caused the ammonia spike?

I was simply trying to help. Why not? They are electric

Because they get huge.

Because they get huge.

Ah, the ones ive seen were not large at all maybe 2-3in

 

[ericwithac]

After quick research your right! Wow 1 foot 6 in max!

 

[stooker]

Fully grown? Most fish that are sold are young and nowhere near full grown.

 

[stooker]

Another thing to consider is that most knife fish are nocturnal and hide most of the day.

+1. What happened in your other tank that caused an ammonia spike and killed your guppies?
