I have just finished setting up a 5.5 gal planted tank. I am going to put RCS, a snail or two, and fish. My main question is what fish? I know they will need to be small. If I only get one kind, how many of each of these can I get?

Guppies
Endlers
CPD
Scarlet Badis
Platies (if it is even big enough for them)

Are there any other ideas for stocking? I am at the beginning of my fishless cycle, but I need to make sure I can find a place to get the fish I want.

No platies!
Some CPDs might work.
No guppies or endlers
The scarlett badis is small enough, although I only know their size.
 
I have ramshorn snails for sale! They are tiny, about the size of a grain of sand. But I have a few adult sized ones. Colors are blue, red, and brown.
 
Thanks, I will need some snails, but I just started a fishless cycle. I will let you know when it is finished so we can work out a deal.

Just let me know. They're going fast! I have some listed on eBay. I also have 2 marimo moss balls that I broke apart for guppy fry but I tied them back up with fishing line. They look good.
