10g nano tank fish

[kathleen55]

so i just bought another 10g fish tank and was wondering what fish i could put in it? the only fish ive found so far are: brown clown goby, pearly jawfish, and dwarf seahorses. and hermit crab, snails, shrimp and such. any other fish i could put in a 10g? will i need special lighting?

Unless you're doing corals you don't need any special lighting

I have a 10 gal reef. And its got tons of corals, snails, hermit crabs, sea star, and 4 fish,,,, blue damsel, clown fish, royal gramma, and a six line wrasse. I have a lot of live rock with plenty of caves and hiding spaces,,,, they are all very happy and rarely go after each other.

sixline is too big and active for a 10

What kind of sea star do you have?

That is an awful lot of fish for a 10g! Wow! I had those fish in my 29g and they seemed cramped. lol

I believe its called an elegans star. Yeah it is a little cramped but they all seem happy together. I have a 29 fresh that im gonna convert to salt and transfer some corals to it from my 10 and transfer a couple of the fish as well. It would probobly be better that way. But for now they will be living in their little 10 gallon. I just do partial water changes once a week to keep the water quality good for them.
