looking for an oddball
 
You could try one of the smaller freshwater goby species like Peacock gobies or Dwarf dragon gobies but other than that your tank and tankmates are too small, guppies make good food for most oddballs. You could also try khulie loaches which although not really a oddball do look quite eel like and stay small.
 
basicaly no oddball would work in that tank,only fish that look like oddballs.

blind cave fish would look cool :thumbs:
 
A puffer of any species would make short work of guppies long fins and slow moving balloon mollies.

Wrong.
I keep SAP's with guppys &
Puffer pack keeps DP's SAP'S & Golden puffers with guppys.
Also SA'S Are peacefull(ish) fish.
Maybe yours is an exception to the rule.
 
yeh every fish has a different personality,
its like saying oscars are aggressive when theyre just greedy pigs :p

anyways,Dwarf Puffers would be best i reckon
 
I agree with CFC here, and I definatly wouldnt try dps ... they're not one of the more peaceful puffers!

Puffers in that tank will probably give you a lot of stress, because even if they do get along with the tankmates for days, weeks, months ... hell, even years! There is always a chance that one day they'll just go for your tankmates without you seeing it coming. Puffers really should be kept in species only tanks if you ask me.

I think the smaller types of freshwater gobies will look Gorg in that tank! They're absolutely beautiful and would fit in really well :)

If you're really willing to take the risk of losing some of your fish/putting them through a lot of stress and get puffers to go with them ... make sure you'll Always have a cycled empty tank where they can go into if they give you any trouble, may it be the first day or 3 years later.
