Suggestions On A Fish To Put In A 35 Litre Aquarium

[James9114]

Hi, i have a 35 litre hexagen tank more tall than wide and wanted some suggestions on what small single fish to put in it, was thinking on a betta most likely but just wondered if anyone has any other good ideas of what to put into tank?

Thanks James

PH 7.4

yes well i have a maidenhead near me so i get all my fish from there so i assume they do the same as thats the hardness of the water in this area. i wanted them for my 125 litre but thought ph was to high sorry to bonbard you with questions but would i be able to put some in my 125 litre with albino, bronze corys black widow tetra glass catfish and kuhli loaches?

thanks again for all your advice

Should be fine BUT Sparkling Gouramis like a warmer temp than your corys do.

would this be a real problem, could i just even it out? or is that a no no

well the highest temp Bronze Corys are fine with is 28 degrees and the coldest temp the gouramis are fine with is 25 degrees so if your tank is 26-27 degrees warm, you can have both species
