Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / February 2008Do Guppies Mix Well With Goldfish?
A girl I know that has a tank, says she has goldfish with different fish in her tank. Her tank is a little wider than mine..maybe a tad larger than a 5 gallon. Also..How big do Guppies grow? goldfish will eat any fish that fits in their mouth. Ingrid >A girl I know that has a tank, says she has goldfish with different fish >in her tank.

Guppies can grow 1.5 to 2" long in most tanks with reasonable care and space. A lot of the guppies in the stores today are inbreeds do not grow as large. I found out years agoa if your into guppies buy em from a breeder not a pet shop. May cost a bit more, but there is a difference. In petstores folks buy em cause they are cheap and plentifull and some do have nice colorations, but IMHO most are mutts.........and have little if anything to add to the species overal....their the next thing to feeder goldies in terms of sales and availability and price. |
