how many guppues can i have in a 6 gallon tank. i have an internal box filter in it and i have an undergravel filter, would it be better just to use the box filter or will both be better?? thanks

I think you can have 15-20 in it since guppies have a smaller bio load.

thats too cramped, a 2.5g is only good for a betta and some shrimp
