Can I keep 6 Harold Schultz Tetras in a 5 gal? probably not but id like to ask anyway seeing as they only get to be about 2cm, & even if I cant put them in a 5 gal has anyone seen them in australia?

(2 centimetres = 0.7874015748 inches) 1 inch of fish per gal?)

a 5 gal is to small for any schooling fish, as there isnt enough swimming room.

Well, I actually think that it would be feasible to stick a school of these guys in a five gallon. They are such small fish, and since they typically school together anyways, they don't really need much space. If you can get your hands on these tetras, then I don't see a problem with putting a school in a five gallon.

I have to say that I think they're very uncommon -- I have never seen them over the last 17 years even in Sacramento's extremely well-stocked main fish store. (You might, of course, be able to special-order them.)
