Eyrie Fingerling Posts: 30 Kudos: 18 Votes: 16 Registered: 22-Dec-2007 | A 20G is unlikely to have enough room for an adult angel (minimum height recommended is 18" so that leaves the endlers and killies. Either would be a nice choice, but the endlers would have to go in the empty 10G to avoid the risk of cross-breeding with the existing guppies. Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within. |

brandeeno Mega Fish Posts: 929 Kudos: 636 Registered: 13-Sep-2007 | i would say take the kilis... they would be the most fun in your tank... like previously stated the endlers might cross breed, which may or may not be bad.. i have seen cross bred guppy-endlers that are very attractive! and you cound sell them for a high price, but it all depends on what you want and what you are capable of haveing... ideally i cwould take the endlers and the kilis and put them in a new 10g with maybe some ADF or some ghost/cherry shrimp.. would be anice stock (just add plants ...)... \\\\\\\"an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure\\\\\\\" |

Eyrie Fingerling Posts: 30 Kudos: 18 Votes: 16 Registered: 22-Dec-2007 | There aren't many fish small enough and inactive enough for a 2G. How about going for something different? Have three or four small shrimp and a couple of pieces of java moss for them to pick through. Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within. |
