Loopy Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 I personally wouldn't do it. I think your fighter would just entertain himself by hunting the babies. Do you need to seperate him for some reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrienne Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 He'll probably eat the young guppies and then as they grow they'll nip his fins. Try putting him into a cut off coke/lemonade bottle for a bit and peg it to the inside of the tank with the female fighters in. He should be fine after about a week when you can let him out but he's certainly better off with the other fighters than the guppies. Generally males don't cause problems when theres more than one female in a tank or you could GET ANOTHER TANK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loopy Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Try making one of these for him. i use the 2.250L bottles. They are bigger than a store bought breeder trap. And i use a glue gun to stick the polystyrene to the bottle to make it float. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
