Can I mix Guppys and Neon tetra in a 5 gallons?

Question

Hi! Can I mix Guppies and Neon in a 5 gallons?? If yes, how much ?

Like 3 males guppy and 4-5 neons? Or 1 male and 2 female guppies and 4-5 neons ...?

Answer 1

i would say 6 neon's tetras and 2 male guppies not 1 female 1 male  guppies as a 5 gallon is to small for fish to breed in as for me saying 8 fish this is exceeding the limit for the maximium hold in the 5 gallon tank  

Answer 2

Neons need to be kept in schools of at least 5 to be happy and that would be enough for a 5 gallon tank.  Or you could have the 3 male guppies with no neons.  Not both.
