i just got 3 female/1 male guppies, but which tank do i add them to?

[AquariumNoob13]

one of the females is pregnant, and so might the other 2, but i do not know whether to add them to my mbuna tank (contains 2 socolofi, 3 yellow labs, 2 mollies, 1 JD) or do i add them to my oscar tank (1 small albino oscar)? i want them to have fry, but at the same time, i want them to survive also. so which tank will they have the most likely chance to survive in? (the mbuna tank has a rock cave, a copper domed castle, and lots of plants)

Neither.:screwy: Besides, use logic. Both are not community fish.

:rofl: that was a great idea gettin those guppys

[AquariumNoob13]

hahaha. my friend had like 40 guppies in a 10 gallon so he told me to take some. =/

They will be eaten in both tanks.

if you have any compassion for the guppies. . . . they will be eaten more quickly in the oscar tank. the africans would probably shred them rather than swallow them whole.

If it is an option, I would suggest to put the guppies in another tank with lots of cover. In both of the tanks mentioned, they will not survive for long (the adults and the babies).

Lets see the options.

10 gallon with an Oscar.

29 gallon with Africans and a JD.

Stop taking in fish. You dont have any room for the fish you have, let alone more.

come december 4th i will have room.

come december 4th i will have room.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you will need a 75 for the oscar alone. The mollies and guppies will eventually get eaten unless they have their own tank.

k. back to the store the oscar must go then. =/ too bad for my little brother. but he never really had an interest in keeping fish anyways, he was just jealous because i had fish and he wanted one too.
