Temporary 10 gallon stocking ideas?

[BellycrawlerJaws]

The 10 gallon is set up again and I was wondering what to put in it until I get the HRP fry from MonteSS...

Here's a shot (just put one of the filters from the 15 gallon on it) - has a kind of "eerie" look to it.

What should I put in it?

Doesn't have to be cichlids

Dwarf puffer tank...would look sick!

Would I need to do any modifications to the tank in terms of hiding spots or plants?

And I know dwarf puffers eat snails, but I've seen them fed bloodworms. I take it it'd be better to feed them snails but thought I'd ask, that's a cool idea!

Keep the ideas rolling!

Depending on how many males you have you would have to add some live or fake plants for visual barriers. Their main diet should consist of bloodworms...with a suppliment of small snails. I have been looking into doing a 10 gallon for a trio.

i think puffers would be a really cool idea. ive been looking at the for a while at my LFS

Yeah, my LFS close to me only carries the brackish puffers (figure 8)... I'm not sure if the other LFS up island carries them but I can look...

Okay, definitely a good idea, others?

Perfect tank for a pair of DPs. You could keep 1 male & 2 females but IMO, I really like just keeping one pair in a 10g, with a trio of otos.
