10 Gal Stocking ideas

[RAH]

Well I have a 10 gal cycled tank set up right now with 1 Albino Cory, 1 Three Lined Cory, and 2 Zebra Nerite Snails. And I was looking to stock it a little more. I had a betta in there until one day he was super aggressive, and I took him out and put him in a 1 gal tank I had laying around. I'm pretty open to any stocking suggestion out there really.

Wht filter do u have

I would say but this depends on wht filter u have I would pick wht species of Cory u want and rehome the other. I would also get some endlers
So ur stock would be...
4 albino Cory Or 4 of the other sepcies
3 or 4 endlers
And the snails

Dwarf puffers are freshwater but even though they are small they are super aggressive and should be in a species-only tank. A 10 gal would only hold two anyway.

The Corys you have are a bit on the "larger" side; having one of each species complicates things a bit as they are more comfortable with their own kind. You could add 1-2 more corys of each kind. It might be a bit cramped for them though as 10 gals isn't much floor space but they would do best with a buddy or two each.

Then you could do a group of 6 NANO fish like ember tetra, chili rasbora or celestial pearl danio. Or 4 endler's livebearers (one male and the rest female or all males would be a good ratio: be careful if you mix male with female as you could be overrun with babies (fry)).

Yeah i tend to avoid babies.... I learned after my now fiances guppy tank. It was funny at the moment at least.
