2.5 Gallon Tank

[*Fishkies*]

I have a 2.5 gallon tank that is set up and running and I'm trying to get some ideas as to what types of fish and how many I could put in. Any suggestions would be great!!!

a betta would basically be the only thing that i can think of that could be kept happily in there. no worries with that though. get one and you'll soon end up with more . they're addicting fish .

yeah i know bettas are addicting. I've already had 6 and i'm still continuing with them.

How about the dwarf livebearer? They stay very small (1" or under) and don't need much space.

true, i didn't think about that! Thanks!

a few shrimp, snail, a group of 3 oto's and some plants.

I have two. I use one to house some platy fry and the other for an ICU to treat fish in from my other tanks.

That's a cool idea too! With the shrimp, snails, oto's and plants....THANKS!!

I think it would make a rather nice planted, shrimp tank.
