Can Guppies and Neon Tetra Cohabit?
Q: I have been keeping eight guppies for a while now, and just recently my father bought me three neon tetras. I know for a fact that guppies and neon tetras are schooling fish but wonder if they do get along well together?
Yes. Both guppies and neon tetras are peace loving, and don’t harass others. Although guppies prefer slightly alkaline water while neon tetras prefer a lightly acidic environment both can be acclimatized to suit moderate water conditions, since most are farm-raised today.

Neons and Guppies, what a beautiful combination. They both have a calm temper.

I’ve just set up a 120 litre tank and I’m wondering if I can have turtles (baby, macaurie short necks) in there with tetras and guppys? Thankyou for all the advice.
