Best livebearer to breed in 20Gallon tank

[goldenballer]

Why/why not..... which is more nutritious for my fish (cichlids), which will get to feeding size quicker? , more healthy, easiest/require no effort

 

[goldenballer]

also how many can live in a 20G tank?

Out of the bunch, IME, swordtails are generally the healthiest.

But you should just feed your cichlids pellets... like new life spectrum.

n/a

variatus
closely related to platies, usually crossbred even, but true variatus are capable of 100+ fry monthly, unlike platies, which are limited to much less

 

[goldenballer]

So swordtail can have 100+ fry per month? Which one has the most fry per month?

 

[Laticauda]

Mollies/swordtails/platy's...whichever one doesn't eat their young. Guppies are small, and stay small for a LONG time.
