Can I Save A Feeder Guppy And Put Him In My Tank?

[Mollygirls]

Hello all,

Another quick question.. My husband has feeder guppies (I know I know.. sigh) anyway there is a boy in his tank that is stunning.. (no he isnt a fancy tail guy but still beautiful all the same) I have taken a liking to him and would like to "save" him and put him in my main tank.. I already have fancy guppies in my tropical community so would it harm anything to add this little fella as well?

The markings on him are stunning and I would hate to see him become "food".. sigh..

Thanks in advance..

P.S. He's been in there about 2 months now and we take care of the feeder tank just the same as our other tanks.. Water changes ect....

I dont see why not.
How big is your other tank, and what else is in it?

Their not a problem what so ever

it will cross with all female guppies and you get some simular fry develop

I'm sure the Guppy will appreciate that!!

Well then I am off to save him.. I hope he is a happy little fella in my tank.. There are livebearers in my tanks.. Guppies, platies, mollies.. There are also tetra's and a few gourami (sp)

I feel sorry for the blue gourami though because my baby silver molly who is this big ----------- always picks on the gourami.. Poor fella(gal?) She is a fiesty little molly..LOL


Thanks for the insight.. I am happy I can keep him, he is such a cutie.. I will post a pic of him when I can..
