Ok to add 2 more swordtails?

[Elisabeth83]

Hi everyone...was told this was the place to post this topic.
Anyways..I have a 26 gallon tank that has been up and running for about 7 1-2 weeks. Right now I have:

2 lyretail mollies
2 silver mollies
2 swordtails
6 guppies
and 1 small pleco

I was told that the male swordtail has a tendancy to harass the female..if you only have 1 in the tank....My question is...do you think Í have enough room to add another swordtail pair? Should I just get just a female..or is it ok to get another pair? Do males get along? Will 2 females be ok for 2 males?


Thanks for your advice!!

You have i male swordtail and 1 female swordtail right? It's best just to get one more female swordtail because 1 male should be placed with two females so that he won't just annoy the one.

yeah right now I just have 1 male and 1 female....

Alrighty..I'll just get 1 more female then

Thanks for your help!!
