Howdy,

I have a planted 55G long tank with 8 Harlequin Rasboras, 6 Fancy Guppies, 5 Emerald Corys, 3 Agazzi Corys, and 2 small albino Bristlenose Astrinus.

I am having a problem with a guppy baby boom and was contemplating adding an angel fish to eat guppy fry and keep that population in check.

Will this work or will the angel also end up eating the adults and the harlies as well. If an angel is the wrong fish for the job can you suggest another species preferrably one which will be ok flying solo since I don't want to increase the bio load too much.
