Hi,
Well i deceided to turn the 75 gallon into a community tank. Mostly livebearer guppy,platty. I know those fish looks like nothing but they are beautiful in very large number. I may eventualy upgrape to a 130 gallon and up to keep all the babies and have a bigger shoal.
I starte with 7-8 guppy lost all the males and finished with 4 who gave me 30 fry already and they are again pregnant. If all goes well i could end up with 70 guppy fry. I bought some other guppy and 2 platies who unfortunately are both males. The guppy around here are nothing special just feeder that are grey/silver in color with a little color on the tail.
What do you think of my idea of having a giant shoal of guppy,platty ? Are you like me that these fish dont look like anything unless in large number.
Of course i would rather keep freshwater shark, id shark,parroon shark.bala shark,black shark ect even a shoal of silver dollar but i just don't have the space right now. If one day i do have the space for those fish. I may have a change of heart.
But right now it does not cost much to keep those livebearer. They breed and fill my tank for free so i don't have to buy fish. They eat flake food that is pretty cheap. You can even buy it in bulk
