13 gallon (US)

[Reefers]

Allo, i have a 13 gallon tropical tank. With 4 guppies in at the moment as starter fish. In a tank as such, what would be the maximum ammount of fish you'd suggest to keep? any suggestions as to what type as well?

 

[green_fox]

wrong spot but how long have you had your tank running (do you know about cycling?)

 

[popcorn1]

yeah he said he has guppies as starters.

 

[popcorn1]

maybe one african mbuna or a bunch of guppies or neons.

You can keep shell dwellers in there like mulitfasciatus or brevis. Some of the smaller julies like transcriptus will work too.

yeahh!!! keep some shellies. that would be nice for a 13g

i've the tank for 4 weeks. i think the microbes will of built up nicely by now, the guppies gave birth about 3 weeks ago and the 3 that survived are maturing nicely. But i want something new,do the shell dwellers have interesting characters?
