5 gallon community tank?

[brendude]

Hey, so I have a 5 gallon tank thats almost done cycling and is pretty well planted. I know this is kind of last minute thinking but any good ideas for fish that could be in a community tank? I like the concept and it seems doable but harder in this size. Id appreciate any fish suggestions, thanks

I like dwarf gouramis, celestial pearl danios and top cats or chain loaches, though a 5 gallon may be small for the loaches seeing as how they prefer to be in groups. Bettas would also do nicely with some smaller danios or tetras, but I mentioned the cp danios because they only get to an inch in length. Smaller rasboras may also do well. Nano tanks like that are definitely possible and easier than some think as long as you don't overstock, match tankmates to each other and maintain it regularly. I also prefer to overfilter my tanks, sometimes doubling what is conventionally recommended.
