Fry and Stocking

Two Things:
First, How big of atank do I need to grow out platy fry to become large enough to sell. 5 gallon, 10?
Second, how big of a tank do I need for five tiger barbs, 3 gold barbs, 2 platys and a snail?

10g should be adequate for the platy fry. It depends as to how you want to sell them. As feeders? As pet fish, you'd have to keep them for 8 to 12 weeks before sale.

20 gallon and up for the barbs, I'd think.

So a 10 gallon dor the fry to sell?
What can you put in a 2 gallon tank at 69deg.
If you were willing to shell out a few bucks for a heater you could keep an African Dwarf Frog or two in there.
 
Yes, if it was heated then a single betta or a dwarf frog could work. But it should be at least 74F for them.
