swivvr Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I just got a new 20 gallon long from the dollar per gallon sale at Petco and I don't know what to put in it. One of the fish that I know is going to be in it are corydoras. I really don't know what other fish would go great in it. This is my first time making a community tank. The only time I've kept fish were bettas lol. I hope anyone here could help me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrozenFins Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Welcome to the forum!! Another Betta in that tank would be cool. Some other fish could be: -Cardinal Tetra -Neon Tetra -Rummynose Tetra -Amano Shrimp -harlequin rasbora -Danios -Celestrial Pearl Danios -Hatchetfish (make sure you have a tight lid with no holes, these guys are jumpers) -Dwarf Pencilfish -Mollies -Guppies -Shrimp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Billy Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Welcome to the forum. I love community tanks. To piggy back off of James Black’s post all those fish get along great with betas. A beta centerpiece fish with schooling community fish like James advised is a great look to any community tank. Neons and harlequin rasboras are my personal favorites. I also absolutely adore and recommend otocynclus catfish for community tanks. They are a schooling fish that work as a team of miniature plecos eating up algae. A lot of fun to watch a group of them vs 1 large pleco, and they are shrimp safe too, only getting about an inch long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
