Can I put Paradise fish in with my Guppies?

Question

I have three tanks, 1 with female guppies and a couple of fancy goldfish, 1 with male guppies, and one with big goldfish acouple od paradise fish and a tin foil barb. i have been given 2 Angel fish. what is the best way to rearrange the others so as non get eaten or picked on?

Answer 1

This would work very welll

Answer 2

not really paradise fish can sometimes nip the fins of fish

guppys would get alot of attention from the paradise fish because guppys have long attractive tails

Answer 3

what size are these tanks?

paradise fish are sub-tropical (not coldwater) and can be very nippy (i had a tank of them do this to one of my bettas before i rescued him from a shop tank, for free http://www.plastic-creep.net/wp-content/... )

the goldfish really needs a big tank to themselves. the paradise another tank to themselves, the angelfish and tin foil barbs, maybe female guppies, yet another big tank, and a fourth for the male guppies (would get munched by the angels).

Answer 4

YUPS!!

they work well together

but hor, male guppies shouldn't be kept with 1 female only. guppies are know to be crazy at breeding.. so the male will stree the female really much, n eventually cause the death of her.. please, get just 1 more female guppy and it will be fantastic.. usually it is 3:1, 3females : 1male.

or, guppies are usually very friendly. and they needs a few other similar fishes together. being along will cause stress n shorten's their life.

get about 3-4 guppies if u can.

other than that, excellent!

All the best!
