vavoli Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Hey i was just wondering if i get a pair of angelfish, will they attack my male guppies? I have 10 and their tails are big and bright like a fighter and i've read that angelfish attack fighters... What do you think? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 A pair of angels will attack anything to attend their territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarimochi Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 when the angels are big they are going to consider the guppies as a meal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vavoli Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Haha cool thanks, good to know. I love my guppies and since i don't have the angels yet don't mind so much if i don't have them. They are cool though. That sucks, but thanks! Yes a muzzle for fish? Just like my partner wants to get a cape for his fighter? >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianab Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 would'nt a guppy out run an angel sorry i have never kept gupyps? Nope.. guppys are pretty much bottom of the fishy food chain. Especially the males, they are a convienent snack size and their long fins slow them down. Angelfish may look all placid and 'angel like' but they are a predatory cichlid at heart. Their natural food in the Amazon is small fish like Neons, so keeping them with those is generally a bad move too. Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
