5 and 10 gal

[Orca Dreamer]

hey guys I have 5 and 10 gal tanks and I was wondering what type of fish can I add but not a betta fish because I already have them,Thanks

It's tougher with the 5 gal as the betta or shrimp/ dwarf frogs would be the only good candidates there. Thats what i think. other members should try and fix my opinion if they think it fit.

The ten gallon can give you more options in terms of actual fish, but then again youre still limited to small fish the size of guppies and neon tetras.

Other recommendations for the ten gal include:
Snails
Platy
Pigmy cory
Peppered cory
Zebra Danios
The smaller Barb species
Oto's (otocinclus)
The smaller Tetra species


You want to avoid getting fish that reach an adult size of more than 1-2 inches.

I hope i helped somehow

I was wondering can I buy 3 gold fishes and place them to the 10 gal tank and after 3 weeks place them to my new 30 gal tank? Thanks

Dont think sticking them in a 10 gal is the best. Also (many people say) is this okay... because I am moving up in tank size soon.. But they really dont. A side note is that "30 gal" needs to be cycled before adding fish to it. And cycled correctly *thumbsups

You should get endlers! they grow only about 1 or 2 inches and are the cousin of guppies, and are easy to breed. The only problem is they are a wee bit hard to find in stores. Oh, and for the 5 gallon, I would only reccomend getting dwarf frogs or shrimp... maybe a betta
OR if your betta is in a smaller tank you could move him into the 5g and perhaps add a dwarf frog.
Good luck

I desided I will get another betta Thanks everyone for your help and one more question How many goldfish I can put in 30 gal and in 55 gal tanks Thanks again

 

[Newman]

I'd say about 1-2 goldfish for the 30 gal and about 5 for the 55. it also depends on WHAT TYPE of goldfish it is. fancies can have less room as opposed to commons and comets.

Ohh Okii Thanks

Also I was wondering see I have a 10 gal tank it been with me for a year and I kept my betta there but sadly he died after dripsy desease and I was wondering can I still use the tank for my other bettas? Thanks

 

[Newman]

Yea you can. Dropsy is kinda rare in bettas (more common in goldfish)...what were you feeding it?
