Smaller varieties like neons and cards you could fit a small school of 6-10 depending on what else is in the tank. I would not suggest anything the size of white skirts or larger. The sized tank simply doesn't offer them room to swim. ^_^ [hr width='40%'] It only hurts when I breathe"  |

Nicely coloured fish, and only reaches 20mm in length. Trouble is, finding them is going to be a major logistical exercise, because they are rare in the hobby. But if you can ... you could theoretically keep 10 of those in your aquarium, although you would need to be fairly scrupulous about water changes.  |
