New To The World Of Tropical Fish

[Athreal]

Hi,
I'm afraid I'm not sure what to write but wanted to say Hi!
I'm new to the world of tropical fish, I've had goldfish but never had the joy of tropical ones before. I'm currently sharing my room and my time with a 12.6 gallon tank with 1 beautiful red betta, 4 corys and 5 baby harlequins.
I'm hoping that with the help from this forum and other sites I can give my fish the happiest lives they can have. I have noticed that there are articles saying that harlequins should be kept in a 20 gallon tank minimum so am hoping to upgrade once they are a bit bigger and I have the space etc for one. As for keeping my betta with other fish, after doing research for a while I chose the fish he was with in the fish shop and he seems really happy with them, he peacefully plays with them.
Thank-you for reading this.
Kindest thoughts,
Athreal
