stocking a small tank with some variety

[christinadee92]

We have a 22 litre (5gallon) tank and would like to get 2 endlers, 1 dwarf gourami and 2 cherry shrimp.
Would this cause any compatibility issues? And i have read a dwarf gourami may grow too big for this tank...what small colourful alternative could you suggest that is happy to be the only one of its species.
Many thanks in advance.

Galaxy rasbora look awesome but they can cost a lot

Thanks they are a great idea, very pretty and smaller fully grown than the gourami. The only issue with them is they like to be in big groups and i will only be able to have 4 of them along with 2 endlers and 2 shrimp. I hope 4 will be enough for them to be happy.

Some of the best fish I know that have good color are rams but they might be too big. If you ever upgrade then rams would be the way to go.
