I think you will be very limited in number and species of fish in a tank of that size.

Have a look in [link=My Profile]http://

You could put in some female bettas and a few frogs and some shrimp

Killifish would be excellent for a small tank such as yours, too! There are many spectacularly coloured killis that do well

White Cloud Mountain Minnows with some watersprite and moss. I had minnows in a 2g and they would have been fine had I not also put in 2 dwarf frogs and 2 male guppies within a week of setting it up! My bad and I have learned my lesson. They did look really good though!
