Hello, I am currently looking to add some smaller fish to my 10 gallon tank. In the tank I currently have just 3 neon tetras and snails. There were more tetras originally but I recently lost power for a week in the middle of winter and now my school is too small. My current tank parameters are:
Size: 10 Gallons
Temperature: 74 F (23.3 C)
pH: ~7.1
Current stocking: 3 male neon tetras (~1 inch), countless small snails
The tank is also heavily planted with many that extend beyond the surface of the tank. It would take deliberate effort to overstock the tank.
I don't know why the picture is upside down
I have visited my local fish stores and narrowed down my options to a few species. They are as follows:
White Cloud Minnows
Emperor Tetras
Orange Von Rio Tetras
Galaxy Rasboras
Endlers (my local fish store only stocks males so breeding won't be an issue)
Oto Catfish (I have found very conflicting information on how many of these to get)
From this list I am hoping to find something that will be comfortable around my neon tetras (who are around an inch at the moment). I would also appreciate advice in regards to how many of these I should get. I've found some numbers online but it is always good to get second opinions. I am happy to provide more information if it is needed. This is the third place I have asked as I have gotten conflicting information from other forums, online research, and my local fish store.
