Male guppy tank

[Renbie]

I’ve had aquariums for many years but I’ve never had guppies, so I decided now would be a great time! I’m looking to stock a 14 gallon with all male guppies, specifically flamingo guppies. Would 10 be a good number for a species only tank? Also I know there is debate on this but should I try adding some cherry shrimp? Thanks!

Hmm, never done guppies and shrimp before so I have no say on that. 10 male guppies sounds great! I know a lot of people say that they'll go after fins sometimes but mine don't mind each other. Could be that they're in with some other fish or that they're busy chasing the females, but I've never had any nippers with the males.
