One little fishy, two little fishy, how many?

[Cammie]

Hello my fishy friends!

I am kinda new to this wonderful hobby and would like a little guidence if possible.

I have a 90 litre tank and at present have 4 beautiful guppies
How many fish of this size (or a little bigger) can I have in total?

Thank you in advance x x x x x x x

That's about 24 gallons.

Use aqadvisor.com/ to see what/how many fish you can put in your tank!
Is your tank cycled yet? You will want to read up on tank cycles before you add anymore fish. Tips for Cycling Your New Aquarium - The First Tank Guide - Getting Your Fish Tank Up and Running with Minimal Headaches

I'm glad you asked this question before stocking too many fish!

That really depends on what kind of fish you like. I have guppies and platies together right now, but will be getting rid of my female guppies once the weather warms up and I can ship them (a member of the forum wants them).

You could do a nice centerpiece fish like a dwarf flame gourami or neon blue gourami, and a clean-up crew for the bottom level of about 4 cories (the smaller varieties like peppereds and albinos, not the ginormo emeralds).

throw in some cherry shrimp in that tank if your parameters test out clean (consistently)
They will help clean up extra food.

Just make sure you don't had larger/semi-aggressive fish if you add the shrimp, or the shrimp could become snacks.
