This post is mainly for a question in another forum to give a better description of my tank size and filter type. I told them to look here. But any comments is okay too! Here's the tank compared to someone's hand. This hand is a small one, though...

The filter is very small. The box is only 4 and a half inches...

Thanks. I'll re-ask the same question here. The tank is 11 and three fourths inches wide and 6 and a half inches tall. But I don't know what fish to put in there. Any good fish that is suitible for a tank this small? How many?

well, I've seen guppies in a tank that small but they need a light. You could have one male and two females. (Also need a heater, have ones for five gallons at Wal-Mart =$4.99)

White clouds are also another choice

betta too

Great! So these fish are tropical fish and all need a heater. I'll go look for the pictures and info on the net. Thanks!
