EnderRen Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Hello, I am EnderRen, (Ender or Ren also works lol), I am super excited to start keeping fish! I have just ordered my ten gallon tank, and have been flying down the fish research rabbit hole. (I swear I have spent so many hours just researching fish, the cycle, and so much more). If you could give me some stocking ideas (because I don't have enough already lol) for my ten gallon that would be really appreciated! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJenna Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 If you stick with the nano fish you can put more than 1 in a 10 gallon tank...While Bettas are beautiful, I love watching schooling fish. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsfoxtail Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Welcome! We can always use another enthusiast! ACO has some great vids on 10 gallon stocking ideas. The oddball route is always fun but go with whatever fish really strikes a chord with you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schuyler Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Welcome! You're definitely taking the right approach doing research before getting fish Careful asking for stocking suggestions or you may end up wanting more tanks to fit more tires of fish. But more seriously, what are you interested in? Someone easy to breed so you can try your hand at raising up baby fish. Bright colorful fish that are cool to look at. One or two bigger fish vs many smaller fish. Personally, those lyretail killis from that list @JJennashared are on my list of fish I want to try. Most killis are brightly colored and are used to living in ditches and puddles so they're pretty hardy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick_G Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Nice looking tank. Don’t forget a background, black window film, paint or just some poster board works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaigeIs Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Welcome! I started with a 10g tank too! Beware, it's addictive. 🙂 Here are a couple of videos that I found helpful. https://youtu.be/Wvc8svZsDAU (15 nano fish) https://youtu.be/Wvc8svZsDAU (Things to know before selecting fish) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
