Hi,

Welcome to TFF!

I use Photobucket

It is a free storage site for pics.

Hope this helps

Sam

This is one of those where (I've said it before & I'll say it again) "a picture is worth a thousand words" We can keep on speculating about what it is you're talking about, or we can give you a direct (concrete) answer if you show us a pic.

Hi Annax and to the boards.

100% Guppy!! (Poecilia reticulata)

 

[Corleone]

Yep, guppies. Who sold you those as tetras?

 

[Miss Wiggle]

you have also got a tetra in one of the pics though, the small blue and red fish is a neon tetra

And i think i see a black skirt tetra in the last picture, bottom right corner, but the yellow fish are 100% guppy, very pretty males i may add

 

[annax]

yes i have some black skirts and neon tetra, they are all brilliant and get on very well. are there any other types of tropical fish that would go well with all of them? something abit different?!



thanks!

 

[lilfishie]

what size is you tank? (dimesions, or litres is fine, gallons if you know it) and how many of each fish do you have?

 

[annax]

i have a small 21 litre tank at the moment but am getting one slightly bigger. i have 5 fish in it and a couple snails too

 

[lilfishie]

so its roughly 5 gal, in that case i wouldn't add anything until you get your bigger tank, will these fish be going into the new tank?

 

[Ludwig Venter]

See what I said about the worth of a picture..... we'd never have guessed that anyone would sell you guppy tetras..... without seeing that pic....

 

[annax]

yes they will be going in the new one. any suggestions on any others i could add at a later date?
