|
|
| The tank in my room is looking very empty with only two danios in it. the dimensions are 45cm L x 25 cm H x 24 cm B. Could anyone recomend anything that would look nice in there? I'm already going to add 2 more danios. Thanx in advance. I forgot to add that its a filtered, fresh water, un-heated tank. |

| You can liverbearers like guppies and platies, cories or most tetras. |

Your tank is only about 7 gallons, so really 4 or 5 danios will pretty much be all you can fit in there.

| I knew that tank was pretty restricting as to what I could put in it, but I didn't realise it could only hold a school of danios lol. This may be pushing it but is there any chance I could add a nice snail or anything else small? Thanks for your replies |

| Is there anyway I'd be able to fit some khuli loaches in? I presume that will be too heavy a bio-load for the tank, but hey its worth a try. Im just trying to make the tank a little more interesting. I realise I'd have to have at least three to keep them happy, so I dont think its going to work. |

If you have 4 danios, you should be able to squeeze in a snail, but I wouldn't try a kuli loach.
