Guppy fish require fairly warm temperatures (23-24 °C, 82-84°F), but they can live in water between 19.0 - 29.0°C (69 - 86 °F) and quiet vegetated water for survival. They are community fish. It is good to have more than 5 Guppies in a tank. It is recommended to have 1 male to 3 females. They seem to be annoying to other fish in the tank, because they often follow other fish around incessantly, but they do no harm. Only sometimes other fish bite their fins. And some big fish can eat them. So be careful what fish is in the tank with them. The water in the tank should be the pH 7.0 - 8.5 and DH of water dGH 12.0 - 18.0 °N.

They can live in 66 - 84, so you have a lot of leeway, unless you're keeping them with other fish. Most tropicals live in 74-80, with 76-78 most commonly used.
Whatever temp. you decide on, try not to let it change too quickly - this can really stress the fish and make them more prone to infections.

One neon received't do nicely. they are shoaling fish, get a minimum of three extra nonetheless they seem staggering in large communities, yet your tank may be overcrowded. Neon tetras stay in temperatures of about 24-28degrees celsius. Guppies, 20-28 tiers celsius. because i do not comprehend the variety of suckerfish or the species of the different one, attempt something like 26 or 27degrees celsius and word the way it quite works out.

Ideal is 72-76 degrees. But they can survive in warm (78-80 ish) or cooler waters.
