∙ 14y agoThere are so many small species of fish that would live OK in a 10 Gal tank, that it is impossible to name them all here. Just remember your 10 gal tank will hold only around 8 gals when it is filled to within 1 inch of the top. Add some gravel and then you are down another gallon or so so you need to calculate the holding capacity by the fishes expected adult size. The calculation to use is 1 inch of fish needs 1 gallon of water.

What is important is that you ask about the adult size of the fish. Those pet store offerings are babies. Mang fish will grow to over a foot long and they will suffer in such a small tank. On the other hand, there are many beautiful fish that stay small that will have room to frolic in a 10 gallon tank.

∙ 12y agoThe rule of thumb is five inches of fish, body length only do not include the tale, per five gallon of water. In a ten gallon aquarium you can have ten inches of fish.

What type of filteration system do guppies need in a 5 gallon aquarium?
A simple air driven corner filter should do the job in a tiny 5 gallon tank provided the tank contains no more than 3 guppies. The first basic rule is :- 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. Your tank is nominally a 5 gallon tank which means when it is only filled to within an inch of the top and has gravel on the bottom, the most it will be holding will be around 3.5 to 4 gallons of water.
How many guppies can live in a 30gallon fish tank?
Guppies are usually 1 inch long, and a good rule of thumb is to have 1 inch of fish per gallon, so as many as 30 guppies will be just fine. Although, it might be nice to add some different fish occasionally.
