beexie Small Fry Posts: 0 Kudos: 0 Votes: 0 Registered: 27-Sep-2011	Edited 28-Sep-2011 10:29 I am new here, but... I have a few questions. I would like to know about certain species of fresh water fish living together in a 10 gallon tank and possibly adding more and if so what kinds. I have 1- Gold Angelfish 3- white cloud moutain minnows 1-dalmation molly 1-rosy barb 3- yellow snails I know it seems like a lot but, my tank seems so empty...

They both need a tank at least 30 gallons in order to grow to their normal adult size. The mountain minnows would be happiest in a larger school, which would fill up more of the space in your tank, although I wouldn't add more until you have moved the angel and rosy barb (barbs also like company of their own kind) ><>

The Angelfish will also eat the white clouds, and as said rosy barbs need to be kept in schools, like the white clouds. Forget the Angels, id suggest picking a tetra or small cyprinid you like and getting 7 or 8, you can still get your sails, and perhaps a few Corydoras for bottom feeding.
