tank

hi

would a weahter loach (brown) ,4 danios (2 gold and 2 leop) and about 6-10 guppys be all right in a 3ft tank or should i get a 4ft tank.

You should have at leat 6 danios and a couple of weather loach, also the weather loach and danio's are sub-tropical and the guppys are tropical but it should be ok at about 24 celcius in a 3 foot tank but add 2 more danios and 2 more loaches

Also what are the dimensions of the 3ft tank.

 

[njackson]

at the monment i have not bought one yet , at the moment they are in my contain/pond in my bedroom .

by the way you can keep guppys in sub tropical

by the way you can keep guppys in sub tropical

I know but they wont tollerate temps as low as weather loach, if possible go for a 48x12x18 but a 36x12x18 should be fine.

 

[njackson]

my guppys are born in sub tropicla and i have a few guppys in sub tropical for 2 years now and my experince they live long ,

 

[njackson]

so a 3ft tank will be fine , but if a get another weahter loach ( hard to get and expensive too) do u think i need a bigger tank

 

[synodontisjack]

that tank will be fine for 2 more weather loach.

weahter loach ( hard to get and expensive too)

Why how much are they by you there like £2 at my lfs for 6" ones

 

[njackson]

i have three lfs near me one have one but did't look good and don't have that munch it that lfs and one can't get them and my other one what far away (mainhead aquatics) first time i went there and they have one and it was the last one , don't know if they have them a lot , but next time i might have to buy one of the intenet.
