how many fish
and what types of fish
also how many of each would be helpful
eg.neon5

Finally this would be a GREAT help what fish to swim where ie.
top siamese fighter betta
middle gourami
bottom plec

what would get on well together it will be a tropical tank
btw sorry i worked it out correctly and it is 60 litres and 13 gallons
IT WILL BE A TROPICAL TANK
I HAVE SAID THIS AS EVERONE IS SAYING GOLDFISH WHEN IT CLEARY SAYS IT WILL BE A TROPICAL TANK

300 goldfish

Usually you can figure on 1 inch of fish per gallon.
So for 45 litres you can figure approx. 31cm of fish.

1 goldfish would fit in nicely. But only one. And they swim everywhere. 1 goldfish per 10 gallons.

hello! i have recently set up a 45 litre tropical tank, and it can be tedious looking for advice you often get told you cant have anything but 1 goldfish or 1 siemese fighting fish. this is not the case!

i currently have 5 green neon tetras in mine (green neons are just a bit smaller than normal neons, and their stripes dont stand out off their body as much)

and i will over the next few months be adding some sort of combination of dwarf pencil fish, guppies, endlers, platy, shrimp and snail.

i have found this website one of the most useful : http://www.aquahobby.com

there is advice, articles and fish profiles on there. i would recommend putting live plants, gravel, bog wood and a couple of ornaments in your tank to creat some hiding places as this helps.

what sort of fish would you like? which fish are you fond of? i'd be more than happy to help you with a real stocking suggestion that isnt just negative saying one fish!
