    Male Only Guppy Tank
    If I have a small tank with a 4-5 male only guppies, will they become stressed or aggresive with each other without any gals around?

    A 5 gallon, so maybe just 3-5 guppies together.

    Endlers are getting the run of the big tank :D

    Yep, that should work.

    Endler's need a big tank the way they reproduce! LoL

    Guppies reproduce just as fast... if you let 'em

    I agree that the male-only tank shouldn't be a problem

    Technically Endler's reproduce slightly faster.

    How are your males doing in the 5 gal tank? I tried that in a ten gal and they were nipping and tearing each others tails off. I hope you had success with yours.
