I think these would fit in your tank, but you should really get some more danios and minnows cos they are shoaling fish, in which case the other species wouldnt fit aswell.

the other fish are all too big for the tank.

mollys and blue gouramis are no way to big for a 2ft tank

sorry i should have added that i wasnt sure about the mollies because I've never found any reliable info on how big they grow

but in my opinion, blue gouramis at 4" are definitely too big for a 2' tank.

I'm with you, cd.

I wouldn't keep 3 spot (blue or gold) in a 15g.

well ive always kept a pair of blues in a 15 gallon an they hav always been fine

Danios also need to be in groups, preferably 6 or more so I would not recommend the Danios.

♂ Forget the sharks and plecos as they get too big. I would also rule out the mollies because, among other things, they are best kept with quite a bit of
aquarium salt in the water, which is not compatible with the others. Mollies are a bit more demanding than other livebearers. And don't have Silver Dollars if you're going to have live plants.

Silver sharks need 75 gallons when full grown, bristlenoses need, IMO, 20 gallons minimum, and the silver dollars get too big as well, 20 gallons min for them also. I'd go with the platies, danios and maybe some white clouds. And some cories for the bottom.
