a pair of kribs!!!! they are awesome, so much personality for such a little fish, and they look awesome too.

if not that i suggest pea puffers or go brackish with a figure 8 puffer.

Smart man!! I totally forgot about Kribs. F8 puffers are awesome as well.
 
well instead of buying more fish save up to buy a bigger tank

Again, my parents won't allow me to get any tanks, no matter what. I really would get bigger tanks, trust me. I have a 29g but it's full.
 
full of what???
 
I currently got a 10 gallon running with some plants and some guppies. Not much you can do with a 10, unless you want dwarf fish.

Oh, and I never had a problem with guppies eating their offspring. Maybe because I have a good amount of stone/wood/plants in all my tanks. I try to replicate their surroundings as much as I can, which is fun, and in a 10 gallon its fairly cheap (compared to my 60).

I think I'm gonna try convicts one more time. I'm not sure; new female? or totally new pair? The male looks real nice.
 
I had 3 convicts; 2 male and one female. I kept one male in the 60 and kept a male and female in the 10 gallon. The first male, liked the female and would try to court her, she disaproves. I then replace males, and this time she's interested, but he's not having it. I traded all of them for guppies and plants. To me, its cool watching a tank of 3 guppies turn to 20 guppies (from breeding). I'm going to fill my 60 gallon with the babies I catch, and just let it populate until I find my small predator to control the guppy population.
