Can I add the baby guppies to my tank?
They are about this big ------------- ( Including tail )
They are in a breeder box at the moment, there is 3 of them. ( Its about 1 gallon )
In the 16 gallon, I have : 1 baby apple snail, 2 male guppies ( Black all over ) ( Gold snake skinned ) and one female guppy. ( tri colour ) and one white crown tail male betta. They have been doing fine for over a month now since I rescued the guppies. The mom gave birth on the 3rd of March, now its the 13th. They are about half an inch... This morning one escaped while I was cleaning the tank out... None of my large fish in the 55 gallon tried to eat it but the Glow light Tetras, white cloud Mountain minnows and some neon's... Not even my Kissing gouami, moonlight gouami or glass catfish tired to eat her but they damn right saw her. They tetras was to slow for them to catch her but she looked much to big to be eaten.
I brought a pair of female platys, all orange. The betta hated them... I had to add them to my 55 gallon.

I think your (tri colour) guppie is the male and the two (black all over) are the females..

Well, if they can still grow some more, I'd say give them time. A hungry fish will eat almost anything (One pufferfish I had tried to eat my finger!) and it could pose a risk to the guppies. But if you are sure the fish will show no threat, go ahead and let them swim.

I'm surprised that the betta isn't trying to fight the guppies......
