I got a 10 gallon fish tank kit and i want to get some fishies?

Question

Are this good

2 Mollies 3 tetras and 1 pictus catfish

Answer 1

guppies go better with them because they stay near the top not the bottom where your cat fish will most likely stay

Answer 2

i would leave out the pictus fish and get somthing smaller

Answer 3

as long as they don't eat each other that's fine

Answer 4

yeah

but it be better if you got 2 pictus catfish

Answer 5

the pictus cat will grow way too big for your size of tank...

Do you have a heater? Mollies and Tetras need heaters...

If you get a Heater here is what you can put in

suggestion 1 -

5 Flame Tetras

3 Peppered Cories

suggestion 2 -

3 Black Neon Tetras

3 Bronze Cories

3 Platies (3 females or 1 male, 2 females)

suggestion 3 -

3 Platies (3 females or 1 male, 2 females)

3 Mollies (3 females or 1 male, 2 females)

1 Otto

suggestion 4 -

4 Pygmy Gouramis

3 Pygmy Cories

1 Otto

1 Male Betta (People say their fins get nipped I have done this set up and friends as well, nothing bad happens)

suggestion 5 -

5 Harlequin Rasboras

3 Panda Cories

1 Otto

suggestion 6 -

5 Neon Tetras

2 Marble Hatchetfish

2 Bronze Cories

These are just a few suggestions, there are many combos you can do, just don't put them all in at once, because you will shock the fish, make sure you take at least two weeks minimum to cycle the tank and add the tougher fish in first who can handle the highs and lows of the nitrite cycle and the ammonia spikes... If you need anymore info on this, buy a book :)

Answer 6

its best to get 6 tetras as they go better in a school,2 mollies are good but i would be care full on your pictus catfish as these grow to 5-6 inch`s hope this helps u out and good luck  

Answer 7

Be sure to wait and have your tank running for a week and a half to two weeks before you put any fish in there!!  

Answer 8

yes and no more than 1 inch of fish per gallon max

Answer 9

I have a 10 gallon tank, with 2 mollys,a algae eater,and 2 angel fish.

The pictus catfish will be too big for the tank,

Answer 10

yup

=]]

Answer 11

yup

Answer 12

Mollies and Pictus cats are too big for a tiny 10 gallon.

What species of tetra? There are many, any that are larger than 1" are too big and they need to be in shoals of 6 or more.

Your tank needs to go through the nitrogen cycle first.

Answer 13

The pictus catfish can grow up to 6 inches so i dont recomend it, unless you plan on getting a bigger tank.

But for the rest of the fish, good choice.

If you want an algae eater i would recomend a dwarf pleco or a siamese algae eater!

Good luck

Hope you like your fish i know i love mine!

Answer 14

As long as you've researched and they won't eat each other, get whatever fish you want!

Answer 15

yes...don't forget to add water.
