Marc Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 (edited) I'm looking to add either Bolivian Rams, Scarlet Badis, or Pygmy Gouramis to my well planted Community tank. I currently have mostly tetras and guppies. Will any of these eat all the Guppy Fry? I like to have some survive, so I don't want to get something that will hunt down every last one. Thanks ahead of time for sharing your experience with these species. Also, are any of these compatible with adult shrimp?

Colu Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I think most of them will eat guppy but if you have a lot of plant cover for fry to hide you should be ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Putting rock piles in your tank gives fry a little fortress to hide in. I have livebearers living with a catfish who loves to eat baby fish, but she can't get them all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redmare Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 With enough cover and enough space, NOTHING can hunt down every last fry! I think (think) the ram would eat the most fry, then the scarlet badis, then the gouramis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
