come get me tang police!
pygmy cory are kinda boring and not very cory-like imo.
You could do a native nano tank.

Just out of curiosity, what do sparkling gouramis eat? I have a 5.5 gallon tank as well, and might get some...

I'm sure they will eat freeze dried food, but I don't generally feed freeze dried food because it can cause bloat. If I do feed it I give it to my larger predatory fish (like my sunfish) that can actually process it well and get some nutrients out of it with no ill effects.
Morgie said:what kind of fish do you currently have in that tank?
Morgie said:If you only want to have sparkling gouramis you could do 2-3 :>
Morgie said:annual killies? I honestly wouldn't put more than three in a 5.5
you may be able to do 2 killies and 1 sparkling gourami. I haven't had any experience keeping the two together so I'm not sure how well they would get along in a small tank, though they are both peaceful species.
Very true! I still think I'd keep a max of three no matter what the particular species of annual in a 5.5There's all kinds of 'annual' killifish with different sizes and temperments, it's hard to generalize about multiple genera like that.
