I am starting a 5 gallon tank and I need help on deciding what kind if fish should go in it! I would like to have more than one fish and maybe a Cory catfish. Please help!!!!
DreD said:I'm not sure a Cory cat fish will be happy with a 5 gallon tank. They're bottom feeders so they need a a lot of open space. You could probably get away with a couple of tetras, glow fish, platties, guppies, dwarf frogs, or ghost shrimp. You could probably get away with 3-4 fish (depending on size) and maybe a couple shrimp or frogs. It all depends on size of the fish, shape of the tank, and how much decor you're putting in there.
