Smaller tropical fish such as a beta, smaller tetras, danios, or a few mollies or platies. Rosy and cloud minnows can be kept in here without the need for a heater. Under no circumstances should you put a goldfish in there, they need at least twice this size for just one.

∙ 14y agosmall goldfish would be my guess, but it depends on alot of things, like how long you want them to live, how many you want, what your time frame is to take care of them and feed them, how much work & effort your willing to put into them, all that good stuff. :)

∙ 14y agoYou can choose from a few shoals of small fish to one or two large fish. The smaller ones are Danios, Rasboras, Tetras, Barbs, Gouramies. The larger ones are from the Cichlid family and include Oscars, Angelfish, Discus, Jack Dempseys etc. Just remember the stocking rules which are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. :- Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week.. Your tank, when it is in use, will not be holding 55 gallons. If you subtract the amount of water that is not in the top 1 inch or so, (no tank is filled to the brim ever) and the amount of water that is displaced by gravel etc you can probably count on having more like 45 gallons than 55.

∙ 13y agoA Betta fish would be best if there is no filtration. If it is filtered I would put smaller fish like tetras in it. Not many fish like small tanks. If you are thinking of buying a big tank in the future than go ahead and buy buy a big tank to start than to slowly upgrade which costs more money. Also when you first start don't buy expensive fish.

∙ 11y agoA 1.5 gallon tank is too small for any fish although people have successfully kept betta fish in tanks this small. I would not recommend anything smaller than at least 2.5 gallons for a betta fish, but you should not try to keep any other type of fish in a small tank

Is this a good community tank 3 female betta's 6 neon teta's and a otocinclus catfish for a 10 gallon tank?
The fish are not bad together. But way to many fish for a ten gallon tank. You put one fish for every gallon. They will probly do fine but you will have to clean more.

What size tank for a 3-5 inch fish?
Well, the general rule for keeping fish is that you should have at least one gallon of water per inch of fish. So a 5" fish will need at least a 5 gallon tank.
How many gallon fish tank should you get for your 3 fish?
Depends on the kind and size of the fish. You should also take in to consideration how large they will get at adulthood. A good rule of thumb to go by is 1 gallon of water for every 1 inch of fish. So for example: 3 2" fish should be in at least 6 gallons of water. To be safe I would put them in a 10 gallon aquarium.

How do you breed guppy fish in a half gallon tank?
just leave 2 mails and 1 female guppy in the tank with no other fish in the tank at all times.-Shocker There should be 3 females to one male. If there are too many males, the females will get stressed out. I would recommend a larger fish tank than a half gallon. Maybe a 10 gallon tank. Remember, you are going to have some babies. Where will you put them?
How many gallon tank is good for 3 glofish?
I wouldn't go less than 10 gallons. Glofish are active fish that need plenty of swimming room. A long, shallow tank is better for them than a standard tank.

What do you do if you are going on a vacation for a few month and you have 3 fish in a 2.5 gallon fish tank no filter in new Orleans?
You should probably find them a new home and when the time comes to have fish again, you should buy a bigger tank and a filter. Three fish cannot properly live and survive in a 2.5 gallon tank - this is not even safe for a betta
Can you put 2 female betta fish in a 1 gallon fish tank together without a divider?
No. The tank is not large enough to house two female bettas. The basic fish keeping rule is "1 inch of fish needs 1 Gallon of water". A female Betta grows to around 1.5 inches so you would need at least a 3 gallon tank to house the 2 Bettas properly.
