    My gups are a bit lonely in their ever-so boring tank. THey have no other species friends. What type of fish is a good tank mate.

    What kind of pleco is it? Most plecos commonly sold at LFS's get WAY too big for a 15 gallon tank. As for what to add, you could add more guppies or other livebearers like mollies or platys.

    THanks for the warning about the fish and the recomendation.The shop I bought Hoover from asked me to show them how big the tank was, and chose a good pleco. I actually wanted a larger one, but they wouldn't sell him to me. Hoover I have had for about 2 months, and I bought him at two months old. He had a growth spurt and grew to be about 1 1/2 centimeters.



    p.s Is there any way I can keep my fish from eating their babies without a trap? This hasn't ever worked for me, and Hoover, still being small can't clean very fast, so a bigger plant isn't really an option. I will be getting mollies probably, so will get another plant that day, maybe along with another pleco because Hoover is so small.

    p.p.s can you show guppies? :lol:
