5 gallon stock

[derek9305]

does some one know or can tell me a list for tropical fish in a 5 gallon tank?

a betta or two bettas if you divide the tank, or a dwarf puffer IF you cycle the tank before adding him. Thats about it.

-A small school of the smaller cories (?) and a betta...
-3 african dwarf frogs and a betta...
-Some type of killi? I know nothing of them but I know you can keep some types in a smaller tank
-A paradise fish
-3-4 platies OR guppies OR endlers (you can probably have more with endlers because they are so small)
-A school of 6 neons or any other smaller type of tetra (it would be "overstocking" it by 1" but they don't produce much waste)

You could also add a small snail in any one of these setups...

You can put some small hardy plants with 3 or 4 white clouds, not heat it and possibly not even filter it with enough plants and water changes!

I was under the impression that tetras needed to be in atleast a 10 gal tank, preferably a tank that is 24" long because they are very active and need the swimming space.
