Surely you have one species on your "must have" list?
We need a starting point!
Think about what sort of tank you want. Do you want one center piece fish and then throw in some extras like bottom feeders and a such, or do you want a nice school of tetras. Bear in mind that a 10 gallon tank can only safely hold a small amount of fish. Maybe a school of 5-7 mid sized tetras and 3 cory catfish?

OK instead of a 10 Gallon tank i need help with a 18.5 Gallon now, sorry :(
I put 10 head and tail light tetras, 1 dwarf male gourami, a female fighter and a baby platie in it.
I think it is overstock but my filter is pretty stong, so i think i should be able to do it.
I moved these fish from my 18.5 because my bristlenose had babies and i noticed the tetras eating them, and they are now breeding again. I need some fish that wont eat them, ive got so far 1 male dwarf gourami in the 18.5 and 3 small platies, any i deas?
THANKS HEAPS
