Is it possible to keep platies, fancy guppies, and tetras together in a 10 gallon tank2007-11-24 23:37:46

If it is possible, how many can I keep in there?

Answers:

Yes, you should be okay with that combo. I'd keep it around 10-15.


just fill it with formaldehyde and you can put piranhas in there if you want.
Those go well together; use the old formula of 1" of fish per gallon of water.
I have. They all get along well.
aren't the tetras the dangerous ones? check again to be sure at you local pet shop
yeah sure wat ever!
well it's possible to keep them all together..they all will get along.I think.but I may be wrong. that the formula was 1 inch of fish per gallon..
Is ok, make sure there some wooden draft for the fish to hide in case of chasing.
Yes thats a good combo..all community fish

you can probly keep a max of 1-2 platies, maybe 3-4 guppies, and depending on what tetras say neons..maybe 2-3 of them.


10 FISH, MAKE SURE THAT IF YOU HAVE MALE AND FEMALE GUPPIES IN THERE THOUGH THAT YOU'RE WATCHING FOR BABIES, THEY EAT THEM AND I'M SURE THE OTHER FISH WOULD TOO. MOLLIES ARE GOOD FISH TO KEEP WITH GUPPIES TOO, ON THE SAFE SIDE THOUGH I WOULD GET ALL MALES. GUPPIES CAN POPULATE A FISH TANK VERY QUICKLY.
The tetras will sometimes pick at other fish until they have the fins looking ragged. Sometimes you may have to seperate them from the others,
I've done it. It worked fine.
Yep, they're peaceful fish.
It depends on the type of tetras. Some of the larger tetras tend to fin nip. Fancy guppies are poor swimmer due to their fins and are prime targets. Neon tetras may be a little small for the larger breeds of platies. (Platty like most fish will happily eat small fish.) Platty, and guppy are a good combo. You really can't keep more than an inch of slim bodied tropical fish per gallon. That is about 5 fish max with these type of fish. (You can often exceed this, but you need to carefully monitor your ammonia, and nitrate levels. And know how to deal with them.)
platies and guppes yes but I wouldn't try it with the tetras because they will eat your other fish
yes
