Hello all,
I have a 29 gallon planted tank that is doing very well but I want to find a way to control my guppy population naturally. It seems like every time I look at the tank, I find a new baby guppy. Right now, I have about 5 full grown guppies in there along with a few babies. In addition, I have 8 neon tetras, 7 harlequin rasboras and a bristlenose pleco. My stocking level is already very high so I would be ok with totally eradicating the guppies, even the adults. I know any angelfish would work well for eating fry but would it be ok with neons and rasboras?Again, i wouldn't be sad if an angel wiped out all my guppies since they are so slow and clumsy. Without any guppies, my stocking level would be good. I don't know much about angels...do they need to live in groups? Or can I get just one? Let me know if angelfish or anything else would work well for controlling guppy fry and leaving my other fish alone. Any advice is appreciated!
