    White clouds are also a good choice. They're also not fry eaters in my experience.

    Just for data purposes for those reading, i run endlers in a 130L tank with neon tetras, glass catfish, red cherry shrimp, Hillstream Loaches and clown/rocket killifish. All is well, there is also Ramshorn and Mystery Snails.

    Endlers are probably my favourite fish. Word of warning about female ones. They will take out juvenile cherry shrimps no problem. Seen it a few times. I keep them with CPD and Borellii Opals no problem. All these fish are happy in moderately hard water and temp of 74. You can also try Cherry barbs. Endlers are very hardy as you say and will swim to your hand.

    I have a couple varieties of Endlers in tanks with cherry shrimp, otocinclus catfish, snails and one tank there are lots of scuds. They all seem to thrive together. In one tank my cherry shrimp are out breeding my Japanese Blue Endlers and in the Black Bar N tank they are quickly out growing the tank as there are fry everywhere.

    How common is the interbreeding between guppies or endlers with mollies? Because i have a alone, virgin mollie with alot of guppies and endlers and she seems to never get pregnant.

  • @FishTankBarn

    @FishTankBarn

    Desiree, they will interbreed for sure but if there are a larger group of guppies or endlers they will keep to themselves and leave the mollies alone

    What about one honey or powder blue gourami with 6-10 endler males? (I don’t want any females because I don’t want breeding.) Thanks!

    I am not an expert on gourami's, I think the honey gourami's would be fine but I think the powder blue would be too big and might eat the endlers.

    Depends I have done fine with Neons with hard water at an 8ph. Wild caught would need softer water for sure.
