will these fish get along?

Question

will 4 guppy's, 2 neon tetra's, 1 honey gourami, 1 plecostomus and a male siamese fighter get along in the same tank?

the tank is small and holds about 5 litres, it has a heater, light and filtration board, is that to many fish for thus small tank?
if it is, what fish out of the list should i get and which ones shouldn't i get?

thanx

what if i just put in a couple of guppy's and a fighter? i have done research and it says that fighters only fight with fighters.
if i just get gupps, how many should i get, i under estermated the size of the tank it is about 2 gallons, still small i know

Answer 1

You can't fit any of those fish in a 5 L tank (less than 1.5 gallons)! Neons are schooling fish that require LARGE groups to feel safe, Guppies will reach about 2 inches each, as will the Gourami, the Plecostomus is probably a Common Pleco that will reach about 1.5 feet, and the Betta (Siamese Fighting Fish) will attack the Gourami because of its long fins. Don't get any fish for such a small tank, they will ALL be miserable. Instead, consider live plants (Cryptocoryne, Anubias, Java Moss, Java Fern, Micro Sword, Vallisneria, Dwarf Hairgrass, Dwarf Chain Sword, and many others), as well as some shrimp species. Try a few Ghost Shrimp, Amano Shrimp, Red Cherry Shrimp, or Singapore Shrimp for a fascinating invert display.

EDIT: A Betta MIGHT live, but it will still be downright miserable with so little swimming room.

EDIT 2: Bettas will fight with anything they mistake to be another Betta (anything with long fins). Gouramis certainly have long fins, and will certainly fight. Fancy Guppies are also easy targets for Bettas because of their huge tails. In a 2 gallon tank, the only fish you have room for is a Betta, and still, shrimp would be MUCH better.

Answer 2

WHO in the world sold you these guys?
No NO please do some better research, get a larger tank and start over. They will eat each other before daylight. NEVER mix a fighter, OMG the rest? You have so gone beyond the code, sue the pet store or if you have any bodies left bring them back? Do you have the register receipt? RIP.

Stick with swords, some mixed and stay clear of aggressive ones. I just caught my breathe. Atleast you did not add an Oscar to the list. Get a better pet store for solid advise!

Answer 3

A Mail siamese fighter is a very aggressive fish and should be kept alone, the other fish are all ok, never had a problem with gouramis they are very placid fish and the others are all ok

Answer 4

NO, thats a 1.3 gallon aquarium are you crazy??? You could do those fish in a 20 gallon (10 would push it, but with good filtrtation you may be able to try it), you could not do the pleco. unless you have a 55 gallon aquarium bare minimum.

Answer 5

do not upload anymore fish, you're overstocked because it truly is. Do the measurements and discover out what length tank you've. If it truly is a 30g tank, you'll purely be able to save the pair of convicts and a pleco of a smaller form consisting of the clown or zebra that develop into purely round 4-6" at the same time as completely grown. The pair and a clown or zebra pleco could do nicely in a 40g tank as well. regrettably, rainbow sharks develop into round 6" and could favor a a lot more desirable tank. they're also education fish that do more desirable in communities. i do not recommend holding a school of those fish in something lower than a 150g tank. Clown loaches can develop as a lot as be 12-14" at the same time as completely grown, they're also education fish. i do not recommend something lower than a 120g for a school of completely grown clown loaches. Pleco's are quite aggressive in route of one yet another, so that attempt to be purely holding one in each and each and every tank. effortless pleco's can develop as a lot as 4ft at the same time as completely grown, and consequently not something lower than 100g is counseled for one pleco. Blood parrot cichlids develop truly large, round 6-8", so not something lower than 50g is counseled for one. They do wonderful at the same time as saved in oddly numbered communities, so that you may do the maths to work out how a lot a set of three could favor. Please go back the rainbow shark, clown loach and both pleco's, and do study.

Answer 6

No, no, no! This is teeny, tiny, tiny! You absolutely cannot put this many fish in that mega small tank. Especially the pleco! One betta, aka siamese fighter, is all you can put in that tank. Period.

Answer 7

sure if you want to have a last fish standing match for the smallest cage ever and the winner is water for being the only one who actually could stay in the tank

Answer 8

What?! That's barely 2 gallons of water! Make the aquarium bigger and their guarenteed to leave each other alone.

Answer 9

NO gourami no betta AGGRESIVE!!!! for only approx. 1.5 gal it's either the neons or the guppies other wise you can kiss em all good bye.

Answer 10

No betta, thats a fighting fish.I would say nor a gourami.Other ones will get a long.
