What about the different water chemistry requirements? I understand
livebearers are hardy, but will they survive the acidic water the neons
require?

Hi everyone!

My tank has finally cycled and all the fish appear to be doing well.

I have a 25 gallon tank with:

2 Guppies
1 Male Platy
1 Pleco (don't criticize the Pleco!)

I want to avoid overcrowding my tank. What I have read is that Neon
Tetras don't quite fit with the 1" per gallon rule because they use
very little space and are not as wasteful as other fish.

How many neons would fit in the 1" per gallon rule? Is it 2 neons per
inch?

Regards,
Neil
