I originally had my low-tech planted tank set up with a male betta, but while at a store I saw some dwarf puffers that I had to get. I went over to petco, bought a new 5 gallon with all the stuff for my betta, and 4 weeks later I was done cycling and ready to get the puffers when I showed up at my slfs (semi-local fish store, after a two hour drive), and ... they were gone. It seemed like such a shame to waste my new 5, so i moved the betta. Now I have a heavily planted 10 just waiting to be stocked. I did some research, and the fish I like are: Celestial pearl Danios, Ember tetras, Peacock Gudgeons, Pygmy Cories, and scarlet badis. I have a few ideas that I think might work, listed below. tell me if you agree with any of the following
1. 6 ember tetras or celestial pearls, 5 pygmy cories, 2 peacock gudgeons.
2. 6 celestial pearls or ember tetras, 2 scarlet badis, 5 pygmy cories.
3. 6 embers or celestial pearls, 2 scarlet badis, 2 gudgeons.
if you don't think any of the following will work, please give some suggestions
My tank is overfiltered with an aqueon quietflow 10, 100 gph. Parameters are temp: 78 fahrenheit, ph: 6.8 ammo, 'trites 0, 'trates 40.
PS Can Dwarf puffers coexist with any of the listed fish?
