Because guppies are relatively small and mild tropical fish, when considering polyculture with other fish, it is better to choose fish that are similar to guppies in size and can adapt to water temperature and water quality. Tropical fish, such as red lotus lantern fish, red and green lantern fish, triangle lantern fish, cherry lantern fish and red nose scissor fish, can be mixed with guppies. Because guppies are relatively mild, polyculture is also relatively simple.
Guppies and what kind of fish are good for mixed culture? Can they be mixed with goldfish?

1. When

considering the polyculture of guppies and other fish, we should first consider the characteristics of guppies themselves. Because of its mild temperament and small size, it can not choose larger and more fierce fish to mix together, otherwise it is easy for guppies to be eaten. Therefore, red lotus lantern fish, red and green lantern fish, triangle lantern fish, cherry lantern fish, red nose scissors fish and other fish, which are also small and mild, are good choices for mixed culture with guppies. These fish are not only graceful and colorful, but also mixed with guppies to enrich the color of the fish tank. Moreover, most of these fish belong to the fish living in the middle and lower layers, which can complement the guppy that likes to live in the upper layer of the fish tank. At the same time, most of these fish are relatively cheap, and the cost performance of viewing is very high.

2. Can guppies be mixed with goldfish?

Although goldfish are relatively large, most goldfish are very mild, so guppies can be mixed with goldfish, but they can not be mixed for a long time. For example, in summer when the water temperature is suitable, the two kinds of fish can be temporarily mixed, and at this time the guppy can eat the residual food of the goldfish in time to keep the fish tank clean. But at the same time, we should also pay attention to, after all, guppies and goldfish like different water temperatures, the size gap is too large, so it is not suitable for long-term polyculture.
