Can I Have These Fish In My Tank?

[betta527]

I have a 5 gallon with a new (pretty strong) filter,and i wanted to get 3 guppies,2 platys,and 2 or 3 shrimp.And dont say i need to get 100 gallons for one little fish!Because i see people on youtube that put at least 7 fish in 5 gallons! Anyways,i wanted to know if i can use spring water because my taps ph is way to high,my springs ph is 7.6 .I also need tips on guppies platys and bettas,shrimp.

I dont know about the water but u do need to let it settle with all the chemicals in, i only let mine settle for a week and all the levels were at right levels lol
and sure i have about 15 guppy fry with cherry shrimp (they are the most hardiest and small so u can have tons, i have 12) but dont have bettas with guppies as they will fight and kill the guppies.

just type the fish u need info on into google.com and u will get tons of info guaranteed lol

I base all of my education on what I see on YouTube... I guess you could have those fish in that size of tank with the right filter, but it probably wont give the fish that much room to swim around.

You usually find on Betta or Dwarf puffer fish in that size of tank and they aren't big fish by any stretch of the imagination.

I'm guessing there was a hint of sarcasm in there

Of course you don't need a 100 gallon tank for them fish but in my opinion a 5 gallon isnt big enough for them 5 fish + shrimp.

A 5 gallon tank really doesnt give you many options, you could keep 1 dwarf puffer in there I think? I believe its 5 gall per puffer, I may be wrong so dont hold me to that lol
