Regular Member lynda441 Posted July 28, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2008 Well, a betta is, of course, best, but if you have a good filter and a heater, you could put in 3-4 male guppies or tetras in a 5 gallon tank. Make sure they are male as you cannot afford to have any breeding going on in such a small tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Chrissy_Bee Posted July 28, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2008 I also say guppies, or maybe a single dwarf gourami. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Petperson04 Posted July 28, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2008 whats a dwarf puffer? <--- That. You would be good keeping 3 male guppies in 5 gallons. (I think 4 would be pushing it, but that's just my opinion. I find that guppies create more waste AKA poo than other trops.) 5 small tetras (neon tetras or cardinal tetras) would probably also do well. I'm not sure about some of the larger varieties, though... I completely agree with Hi-d, that whatever kind of fish you decide to get, do LOTS of research BEFORE you buy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member heidiinatree@yahoo.ca Posted July 28, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2008 I agree with petperson I got feeder guppies that I cannot feed to my puffer and talk about WASTE machines they keep up with goldies in the poop department!!I was amazed at how much poop came out of a little fish !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
