are any of my tanks appropriate for livebearers?
look at my signature, at my tank descriptions, and please let me know if you think i can keep either guppies, platys, mollies, etc. in my 10-gallon or my 46 gallon.
keep in mind that most of the zebra danios that i have listed are gone and have been moved into my cycling 29 gallon, freeing up some space.
can i keep a few? if so, what types should i consider? which tank should i add them to? would any of my current fish help to control the amount of fry?
oh yeah, and my water runs slightly alkaline, at 7.2Last edited by frank_zappa; 06-07-2009 at 09:32 PM.

You could have have livebearers in the 29, once completely cycled. I would keep keep either guppies or platys and make sure you have a place to bring the fry too!

i have a 20 gallon i am going to start cycling soon as well, so if i just wait i will be able to make all my fish happy and also get some Livebearers if i want to. it makes more sense

The Tiger in the 10g. I realize they do not get huge but 10g is too small for any pleco IMO.
