What should I put in my 10 gallon?

[GallonsOfFun]

Looking for stocking suggestions for my empty (besides a nerite snail) 10g.

I've attached a picture of the tank. I'm aware of the limitations of the size and don't want it overstocked or to put fish that are too big/active for the tank. Excuse the poor aquascaping, using it as my learning curve for planted tanks.

A pair of scarlet badis 2 Otos and a school of 7-8 micro rasboras like Bororas Maraculus is what I'd do... Or instead of the badis maybe a nice colorful betta...

A pair of Badis would be cool. They are a pretty unique fish... You might get decent money from the offspring as well.

They are like mini cichlids, ive heard.

A Betta sorority would be cool in that tank as well. A little cramped but i think you could work it out.

It's a nice looking tank!

Stock options:

A group of male Endlers

Small group of sparkling gouramis

A pair or trio of commonly available killies (australe, garneri, etc)

+1 for Boraras maculatus: small, colorful, peaceful!

Microdevario kubotai are also small and peaceful

Single paradise fish

Ember tetras

Hmm. Thanks for all the recommendations! Leaning towards badis but still unsure!

I would highly recommend the badis they're really cool.

Another suggestion would be harlequin rasboras and a group of otos
