5.5 gallon help

[georage]

Howdy from Atlanta

I have set up a nice looking 5.5 gallon in my home office and want to buy the fish next Monday.

I am thinking a pair of dwarf gouramis and X number of cardinal tetras.

How many fish would be too many?

Thanks for any assistance.

well schooling fish like tetras should always be kept in groups of at least 5, and gouramis being a labyrinth fish allows for you to fudge a little on the 1" per gallon imo

2 flame dwarfs and and 5 cardinals would be a beautiful:
