Fish For A 27l Hexagonal Tank?

[tom_os]

i would love like 2 really nice center piece fish as well as maybe a shoal of something.

can anyone recommend something?

its Way to small for any shoaling species, a pair of honey gouramis would fo the job nicely, or a betta with some cories

 

[tom_os]

ok i thought it might be, is a betta ok living by itself i.e with no other bettas

 

[Truck]

yep keep a betta male on his own ( its too small for females or you could have 1 female only )

 

[tom_os]

ok thanks.

you could have a shoal of wcmm with a honey gourami as a centrepiece or galaxy rasbora

 

[Truck]

believe me WCMM's would prefer a bigger tank, they come from fast flowing streams and are very active

 

[tom_os]

is my tank to small for 2 bettas?

 

[Truck]

two males would kill each other as would females, you cant keep 2

 

[tom_os]

could i have 1 betta and some plecos?

 

[Truck]

any pleco will out grow that tank, cories will be better, if people say ottos, yes you could get them but not until your tank has been going for 6 months

 

[tom_os]

ok i will stick of corys as i like them

 

[Truck]

the only cories that will be happy are a species of pygmy, about 6 of them, add the cories first, then the betta a few weeks later

WCMM would be fine in a 27 litre tank with honey gourami but if you want a betta most of all scrap the shoaling fish snd stick to bottom dwellers

 

[tom_os]

will do, thanks
