Can scavengers be raised with guppies? What other fish can they be raised with?

Scavengers can be raised with guppies. Because the scavenger can clean the moss and food residues in the fish tank and slow down the deterioration of water quality. But guppies can only be mixed with smaller scavengers, because large scavengers will chase and attack guppies, so choose scavengers of similar size to mix with guppies. It should be noted that scavengers need to be isolated when guppies breed, because scavengers eat fish eggs.

1. Can scavengers be raised

with guppies? Scavengers can be mixed with guppies. Scavengers are omnivorous fish. They like to eat algae, moss, food residues and other garbage. They are loyal cleaners in aquariums. Moreover, most of the scavengers are at the bottom, which does not conflict with the guppy's activity area, so it is very suitable for polyculture. But breeders should choose scavengers of similar size to mix with guppies. If they are larger scavengers, they will bully guppies and may attack guppies. Also, when the guppies breed, they need to be isolated, because the scavenger will eat the eggs, if the guppies do not isolate the scavenger when they breed, then all the eggs they lay will be eaten by the scavenger.

Scavengers

are tropical fish, so it is best for breeders to mix them with tropical fish. Secondly, scavengers have the habit of adsorption. Breeders need to choose fish with faster swimming speed to mix together. If the swimming speed is slower, it is easy to be sucked by scavengers and can not escape. The fish that

are more suitable for polyculture with scavengers are zebrafish, rose fish, white cloud golden fish, tiger skin fish and so on.
