Oddball 10gal

[cichlid tank]

what about a khuli loach or some blind cave tetras?

Any chance you could go a little larger? Would anyone know the difference between that and a 20? You could go salt and pick up a mantis shrimp. That would be something different and the change to salt would keep you engaged. Going from a larger tank wondering if you wouldn’t get bored with it.

I've wondered myself about these shrimp. Where can you even get one?

Most places should be able to get them. Liveaquaria.com has them frequently

I’ve been looking into Killifish actually! Still unsure however. I forgot about the Hillstream Loach tho! That’s definitely a good one. Thank you!

I have some killifish and they're actually pretty fun to keep so I def agree with those!

10 gallons worth of water or a 10 gallon tank? It makes a difference as you could get a tank that is twice the length of a 10 gallon yet fill it up half the way and it still does not break the rules.

im not sure but would a small group of shellies fit in a 10? cause then you could do those, maybe multies?

In search of inspiration:

I have a 10 gallon tank that I will be setting up when I move back into an apartment sometime in August. Sadly 10gal is the largest they’ll allow and I’m used to keeping my 125gal polypterus tank so I am struggling with ideas, I know it’s months away but I have nothing better to do in quarantine.

I’d love some cool oddballs that aren’t terribly hard to find. The current equipment it’ll have are an Aqua Clear 20 and a small sponge filter. I’ve kept pea puffers in the past so I’d like to try something new. I am struggling massively any interesting ideas will help me figure this out!!!

Thank you all!!

Dwarf red eye puffer, here’s mine
