After 2 weeks of pondering I've narrowed down a few things. I am doing a heavily planted 10 gallon bio type/species tank. I know what plants I'm using and going with a few ottocinclus, shrimp, or dwarf cories as my custodians.

But I'm equally torn between three possibilities for rare livebearers...

Either:

1. Tiger endlers (yellow)

2. Micropoecilia Picta (orange)


3. Limas (tiger platy)

4. Scarlett badis (???) unsure of these but they have been recommended to me

I have some more time to choose.. But I am not sure what I want! Maybe by vote?? Go!!

I would go for the tiger endlers. They are small and cute and you can keep a lot more of these than the other fish. The males have vibrant colors and the other fish it varies. They are really hardy as well.

Scarlet Badis often will only eat live food. Lovely fish, but I would say, read a lot more before you chose them.

Normal Dwarf Cories get too large to keep a group in a 10g. Look at the three pygmy types instead. I had C habrosus in my 10g ImageUploadedByTapatalk1415330537.037966.jpg

Celestial Pearl Danios are one of my favorites for a 10g. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1415330575.189226.jpg

Ah yes. Celestial pearl danios are also a great choice. Variation of color and they look amazing.

I'm just getting back into fishkeeping after about 4 years lol.
What about sparkling or licorice gouramis?? I had forgotten about those also.

So many choices!

I have no knowledge of these fish so i'm voting the Tiger Endlers on the basis of their looks.
