How Many Fish

[chantelle]

Hi I have a Juwel 180 and im jusy wandering how many guppies, platys and mollies would be ok in here??
I now have 2 x white molly (one of each sex)think i need a few more females as she is getting harassed!
3 x sunset platy (one male two female)
2 x mickeymouse platy (one of each sex)
3 x guppy (one male two female) and
10 x four week old small angel fish (which arent staying just looking after!)

and my partner wants a blue shark???!

Any advice?

Thanks

There are different types of Juwel 180 ( bofronted etc )
A link to your tank or a size would be good

The thing you have to watch out for is 10 angel fish they will grow big. So if you tank is small ....

Instead of buying more live bearers you could just wait a month til they have their babies & get them free. But if you want to buy more I have some cremecicle lyretail mollies that are beautiful. Funny thing is that if I get a bigger/other tank the white ones are first on my list to buy.

Hi no its not a bow front. Its 180 litres. I dont plan on keeping the angels, maybe just two of them but the other will be going back to a family member as soon as their tank is sorted.

I think the white female molly may be pregnant but the male is really pestering her. Do they really mate like rabbits? Ive never had any of my fish give birth before (at least I dont think!)

you could have loads of fish in that tank. But yeah wait till yours breed its far more rewarding.
