| Avoid Housing With | Tiny tetras, guppies, or slow-moving fish get stressed out or nipped by the yo-yo's high-energy antics. Bettas or fancy guppies are prone to fin-nipping. Yo-yo loaches love to hunt and eat snails, and they may pick at small dwarf shrimp. Large cichlids or Oscars can bully or injure them. |
