Hi,
I have a 5 gallon hex tank. It is cycling right now (3 weeks old, still have some ammonia, but it is dropping). I currently have 2 African dwarf frogs that I love already and 3 zebra danios that are going to a LFS as I realize that I made a mistake with them--too active for such a small tank.
So, I would like some suggestions on what to get to go with the frogs. I know that many people will say that 5 gallons is too small and that I should get a bigger tank. Please know that I understand this, but am a poor grad student and what's done is done with the purchase of my small tank. I also know that I need to wait until cylcing is complete to add anything.
I want a fish that is calm, peaceful, and will add a splash of color to my tank. Most of all the fish(es) MUST absolutely leave my frogs safe.
Ideas I have heard from others include: male betta, female betta, dward/flame/honey gourami.
Again, I want a peaceful, calm, pretty tank with healthy/happy inhabitants.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
