I'm in the process of saving up for a new tank for my guppies (not looking to breed) and I was wondering what environment they prefer. I already have a small heater that can handle a 10 gallon tank and it's preset to an average of 78 degrees F. I've read that guppies should be kept in a 20 gallon tank but is all that space really necessary if I only have 5-7? Also, would it be alright to have plastic plants in the tank? I know some fish can injure themselves on pokey plastic plants. Last but not least I'm not sure if I should stick with a gravel substrate or switch to sand.
Any advice is appreciated. :3
