Ok, I have a 2.5 gallon too so could I put my frogs and betta in that with a puffer in the 5 gallon ?
It's a aqueon speaker tank
Hello, I was just wondering if any of you guys and gals could recommend some good fish/invertebre that would be good in a five gallon aquarium.
Thank you so much! One more thing though. Would having 1 female betta and 2 African dwarf frogs limit that list?
Ok, but do u have any recommendations for an unusual fish.
That's a whole lot of irresponsible advice!What can go in a five? Many, many options. Many of which will start arguments. This is a list that people have been successful with. Its not a guarantee but it is a place to start.
Endlers (males preferably, add a female and you had best e selling a lot of babies all the time)
Betta (1m or 1-2 females, 2 may cause issues depending on personality)
Green Neon Tetra (not really green)
Ember Tetras
Scarlet Badis
Celestial Pearl Danios
Many types of rasboras (some are incredible looking, but they are often the very tiny varieties)
Some types of Killifish
Dwarf Puffer
Smallest Gobbies
Smallest two species of the shell dwelling cichlids (Lamprologus Ocellatus or neolamprologus multifasciatus/similis)
Asian Stone Catfish
Smallest apistogramas (its not colorful, more assortment for breeding but then they need to move)
And nearly everyone one of them can and will start an ethics argument. Remember there are additional concerns when doing this such as: water temp., water type, water quality, plant levels, ground cover/substrate, etc.
Only listing what people have been successful with. Main complaints are Bettas and cichlid.That's a whole lot of irresponsible advice!
