a 35 litre tank off my uncles friend as hes moving abroad, he gave his fish to one of his friends so its all set up, what can anyone reccomend i put in there? Im no good with the whole stocking thing as it is!!!!

What are the dimensions? Your (tap) water paramenters?

Best choice is likely to be shrimp, Betta splendens or dwarf fish (and by dwarf, I mean really, really small).

ive not picked it up yet, just wanting to know roughly what fish can be put in there size wise

 

[m_attt]

something small like micro rasboras (boraras briggate)

Well, if it's a 50*20*20 cm tank, than most microrasbora, small tetra, dwarf goruamis, small livebearers, etc should be fine (depending on your water parameters), but if it's a cube (for example, 30*30*35 cm), then you're limited to slow-moving fish, I would say.

maybe you could take some of your friends' boyfriends fish off him and save a life or two!!

It is definitely too small for angels and most likely too small for Corys (I consider that most dwarf Corys should have at least a 60*30 cm footprint tank). Do you know what species the Corys are?
