Hi,
I have a 20 gal tank and would really like to get a rainbow shark for it (I think they look really cool). I have platties, mollies and guppies in the tank right now and the girl at the pet store said that the shark wouldn't be a good fit for my tank. Is she right? Or can I have a rainbow shark happily living (and nicely) living with my other fish?
Also, I have about 10 baby guppies (5 almost a month old, 5 others almost a week old). Any ideas what to do with these guys? (Other than flushing them) I was hoping the adults would eat them, there isn't much for the babies to hide in. But the adults just ignore them. Will a pet store take the babies (for a price, or even for free?) Will a pet store buy/trade my adult female guppies? (The stupid idiot at the pet store told me they didn't have any females, and since the guppies were the first fish that I have ever had, I didn't know how to tell the sexes apart. I sure do know how to tell them apart now!)
