What fish would be good to put in a ten gallon tank?

Hmm.. how about red wag platys, tetras, and guppies together?

Maybe 6 small tetra, 3 guppies and one platy IMO.

 

[Galligak]

Agree with mumma.of.two! Although maybe one or two more of the tetras depending on the type.

Could I do a bleeding heart tetra?

 

[downtowndisorder]

I'm sorry for asking a stupid question, but platy IMO? What is IMO?

 

[Galligak]

I wouldn't do the bleeding hearts. They get too big. Stick with the torpedo shaped tetras. IMO means in my opinion

 

[downtowndisorder]

Okay, thanks. I'm sorry for that stupid question

 

[Mumma.of.two]

I agree with aquakai bleeding hearts are too big for a ten

 

[downtowndisorder]

How about a bloodfin tetra? Or a neon tetra?

 

[Galligak]

I'd go look at some if the fish that I suggested or that mumma.of.two suggested. Those will all fit in there. Ember tetras are one of the easiest to find smaller tetras, well at least where I live. Those would be good. Or maybe any of the rasboras that are listed. Those are all very small and would be great additions

Aww dont move the little guy! They LOVE huge tanks, dont let the little cup they come in decieve you!! A betta is an AWESOME centerpeice fish!! Add some nano fish, snails, and shrimp and your tank will be better then ever!

Absolutely but it's up to you, I have my betta in a 10g with cories, shrimp, snail, neon tetras,dwarf frogs and even an eel he is so happy!! I even added some floating wisteria and he sleeps on it.

Bloodfins, I wouldn't. As for neons they're ok. Another option, others disagree, but cardinal tetras. My friend has some(7) in her tank (29g) and they are still very small and don't swim all too much, and she's had them for a year and a half. I'd do them instead of neons... But it's up to you

 

[downtowndisorder]

Okay, thanks
