 | help stock a 10gal |
incubus70  Fingerling Posts: 36 Kudos: 31 Votes: 3 Registered: 10-Mar-2005   | Hey everyone. I need help stocking the rest of the 10g tank. Here's what I've got in there right now: 5 cloud minnows 2 peppered corys So I probably have room for 2-4 more fish. I'm going for a cooler tank, maybe 21-23C, any suggestions? |

A 10g is too small for schooling fish. You could do a school of cories and a few other small fish like a pair of cherry barbs, male guppies, a small gourami... 2 schools of fish would be overcrowded in such a small low tank. |
