Fish for my 10 gallon tank

[Charlie727]

Hi everyone,

I have a 10 gallon tank and I want to add some new fish. I already have:

2 tiger barbs
2 blue neon dwarf gourami
1 neon swordtail
1 African dwarf frog

I think you may have hit your limit, but at least I would wait until you see how the two gouramis work out together. How long has the tank been set up??

yeah thats pretty much stocked for a 10 gallon. it's possible to do more but not recommended. maybe a couple cories or kooli loaches. maybe a bushy nose pleco. not all of those but one or the other if adding fish is what u want to do.

Thanks you guys. My tank has been set up for three weeks. I like the idea of a Pleco, but will it be ok. I only have a ten gallon tank?

Charlie, did you cycle the tank before adding fish? Are you testing the water?

Like said, you're about at the limit in terms of stocking a 10gal.

A bushy nose does not get big and grow slowly

Freshyfresh-i cycled my tank right before christmas and only got fish three weeks ago. Ive tested the water recently and everything is good.
I think ill get the pleco. Thanks for the suggestion
