No need to be strict, if the fish cannot be happy in that size tank I will not get it. Okay? Please be nice.
… Now… I have a…erm… 5 gallon Bow-front tank with a lid and a small filterish thingi that puts air into the water.
I have rocks for the bottom and some plants. Actually, a lot of plants.
1. What types of fish can I put in this tank? Tell me if they are freshwater or saltwater.
2. Give me a specific name please.
3. Can I put snails in there with them?
4. Can I put a goldfish in there?
5. What about a Dalmation fish?
6. What about shrimp?
Please answer! I am looking for cool looking fish.
I once had 2 male betas in there, with a divider in between. I don’t have the divider anymore. It was so funny because I used to walk in there and see both of them on one side, but they didn’t even fight! They were like best buddies… lol.
I was thinking:
1 Zebra Danio
1 Dalmation Fish (Dalmation Molly)
1 Cherry Barb
1 Neon Tetra
1 Guppie
1 Snail
Would these fit? They aren’t that big.

that would be fine
Tetras are schooling fish. Danios, and barbs are too and dalmatian mllies are good with 2 or more. Dalmatian mollies need more room than that. Guppies are community fish and are good with 3-6.
Goldfish can not go in a 5 gallon or they will die quick because their organs will grow but they will stay little.
You can get 1 betta
or 4 neon tetras
Yes you can have shrimp in there.
You can have snails too.
My gallon tank is too small to support decent school of gardneri killifish no goldfish fullygrown goldfish in length and itll probably die before long.
The fish and some of wellfiltered water if you have in gallon or betta and snail or betta and itll probably die before long.
The fish and some stocking ideas for gallon its growth will need between 55 75 gallons of anything except neons some.
The fish and some of wellfiltered water if you put goldfish fullygrown goldfish in gallon its growth will be stunted and itll probably die before long.
