Stocking ideas for 5g?

[megsmelody]

I recently upgraded to s 10 gallon tank and I'be been trying to sell it on craigslist... to no avail. So I'm thinking about putting to good use

What can I put in a 5 gallon. I'be read some suggestions:
Berta
puffer fish
shrimp.

Any other ideas?

Collecting shrimps is fun and easy. Don't let them crossbreed.

You could do a couple guppies or like 4 or 5 ember tetras. I don't personally know of anything else besides the fish you listed.

school of celestial pearl danios works.

If you want to try natives, you could do least killifish, pygmy killifish, or pygmy sunfishes.

IMO guppies should be in groups of no less than three in a tank of atleast 10 gals.

You could do some dwarf crays like cambarellus shufeltii with a nano fish like mosquito aka chili rasbora.

I keep guppies in a 5 gallon and they do well. But I keep males since they are smaller and only a few at a time. IMO. But I know most people suggest 10 gallons for them.

Killifish are another choice - easy care - a pair or trio (1m/2f)
