New Tank?

[Worthless]

Well today i graduated grade 9*DRUMMER* and with my grad money I am thinking of possibly buying another tank, nothing to big,maybe somthing that could sit on my dresser or somthing, I don't know what to stock it with. I would kinda like to Breed Guppies or somthing but in the 10 gallon tank I have at the moment I have a Betta and I don't think he would be a fan of the Male Guppies tail, So any suggestions on tank sizes and what to stock it with? Or any other types of fish I should put in my 10 gallon? Currently in my 10 gallon I have, 1 male betta, 2 female platie, 1 Male Platy, 2 Neon tetra and 1 Small plec, I would like to add more but don't know what to add.

Congratulations! Since you want to put this on a dresser my suggestion of a 29g is out of the question. You could probably get another 10g or a 14g, something like that. Maybe go with a school of tetras. I've got a school of five in a 10g planted with a colony of red cherry shrimp. Or maybe you could get a dwarf gourami (a honey red, perhaps) with a few neons.

How sturdy is the dresser? Go 20L with a couple swordtails and some cardinal tetras. Grab a few ottos and your good to go. That would make a nice planted tank as well. I am sure whatever you go with you will enjoy, congrats on your freshman year completed.

depending on what the dresser is made of could ultimatly decide the tank size. 10 or 15 would work, you should try maybe a brackish or maybe a couple of female bettas w/ guppies....

brackish... not quite freshwater, not quite saltwater... it's a mix.
