I want to buy a 2.5 gallon tank and i want to know what and how many fish could I add to the tank?

Nick Goody

Not much. Some shrimp and plants. Or maybe a betta?

i agree with nick goody, a 2.5 is pretty small, i keep two of my bettas in their own 2.5s, but i really wish that i had gotten 5s instead.

2.5s really aren't worth the money, for everything that i bought for mine (10 for the tank 16 for the heater 16 for the filter, decorations, gravel etc) and NOT including a hood, i could have just gotten two more of my favorite 5 gallon kits.

(it says $45 on the site, but if you just sign up for a pet perks card which is completely free in the store it's only $36)

A 2.5gal is really really small. A betta, or shrimp colony are about your only options! I'd try and get the 5gal that Agabr reccomended - then you'de be able to keep a trio of male endler's livebearers, 6 Ember tetras, a honey gourami, 2 cherry barbs... And a lot more!
