hi! okay, so i'm posting another thing here just to ask what everyone's ideas are for an empty (well, soon to be empty) 10 gallon tank. there are a few fish i do not want in there. here are the fish i DON'T want to keep, mostly due to experience:
•livebearers
•tetras
•gouramis
some fish i was considering were pea/dwarf puffers (just a pair or maybe three) or a betta sorority. im really not liking the pea puffer idea anymore because (i know it's dumb) im not too keen on feeding them live snails and that sort of thing. also, i feel as. if i'd somehow mess it up because some people said they're not hardy!
i have a reasonable amount of experience with bettas, and they are my all time favorite fish. now before everyone criticizes the sorority, hear me out plentyy of people that i know keep 10 gallon sororities that are super peaceful and awesome! i know that they are not easy, but i'm willing to take on the challenge. i would have a sand substrate with a ton of plants and a ton of hiding places. i would just really really love to have a sorority, but if it doesn't work i can always divide my 10 gallon four times so that each betta could have 2.5 gallons!
anyways, are there any other suggestions on fish that would be really cool in my 10 gallon? pleease don't suggest anything that i listed above as fish i don't want. what i'm really looking for are a few fish that are really cool and unique (like bettas) that are able to fit in my tank comfortably, but also aren't super tiny. also, if you could pick fish that are easy-moderate care level, that'd be great. thanks!!
