Is This A Waste Of Time

[juelz]

hey

i was just wondering would be at all possible to put ne kind of cichlid in a 5 gallon tank if so what kind would be able to go in

 

[Alex_]

none that i know of.

 

[Joeyg2100]

stick with a beta, or something that will do good in such a small tank. Cichlid is not a good idea for that small of a tank

 

[fishboytoo]

I agree, too small for cichlids.

You could get a dwarf puffer. They're pretty nice, but you couldn't put anything else in with it except maybe an ottocinclus.

i would upgrade to a 10+ for even the smallest cichlids. I like convicts.

 

[SamUK]

convicts wouldnt even fit into a 10g let alone a 5 tho lol.

You need atleast 10 gallons and then you can get german blue rams....... i think.

i supose i would to, the smallest tank i have is 6 gallon and thats a fry rearing tank
umm you could have bolivian rams maybe fro mwhat i know they only grow to about 2"-3".

im sure there are other dwarf cichlids like COKATOO CIHLIDS they are nice and colourfull i seen them at the lfs last week.

i hope that helps
