Freshwater Beginners A place where freshwater aquarium fish beginners can go to post their questions and hopefully get responses from those more experienced. Also check out the Freshwater Fish Beginner's Guide and Aquarium Setup Guides. Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

lone fish
I wanted to get a fish that would do good by itself in a 20g.

Maybe a RTS? Or even a betta?

Like a Pearl or such? They get to be about 4 inches, so it's be a beautiful fish in a 20 gal. Maybe make a planted tank? That would be beautiful.

Just interested....

Why do you only want 1 fish in your 20gall anyway?

A Gourami would be a very good choice, especially pearl.

A RTS would be fine on it's own in a 20gal. Rainbow Sharks need bigger tanks.

If you go with a paradise fish make sure you have a lid that is secure they are jumpers, but that would be what I would go for.

Because i'm afraid if I have lots of fish in there I won't love them or get attached to them like if I had one happy fish

If you want a fish to love and get attached to, puffers are the most personable fish you can find. And living alone is perfect for them.
