Stocking for 3 gallon planted tank?

[Hybridfish7]

I have a 3 gallon planted tank that used to have a betta, nerite snail, and otocinclus.
the nerite snail died awhile ago, and my halfmoon betta died on sunday at 3 years old...
now it's just the lone oto. (I know, I shouldn't have a lone oto in such a small tank, but he's been fine for the past few years.)
I just have some driftwood, java fern, christmas moss, and flame moss in there.
Any suggestions on what I should put in there?

Here's the tank-

Shrimp is popular for Nano aquariums.
I personally never had them but would try them in a 3 gallon.

I already have a nano shrimp tank... heh... only has like 3 shrimp in it...
would a platy or two be fine?
or a guppy or two?
I don't think a nother betta would be too nice to the oto. The betta that just passed was raised with the oto, and always did fine with it... not to sure if a new one would be fine, I know all bettas have different personalities.

The Platy or Guppy would work.

What about some pea puffers

I'd rather not given how messy puffers are said to be...

I think some shrimp would be ideal! 10 turn into 50 in no time at all, very fun to watch and also keep the tank spotless. Would recommend

Lol fair enough, don't know to much about them. Just a suggestion of something he could look into
