I’ve got an empty 10 gallon tank and I need small pet ideas. My criteria isn’t really that specific; here it is:
-Not too much $$$
-Average lifespan fewer than 4 years
-Not a betta fish
Any ideas?? Thank you

Hermit crabs are social creatures that live in pairs or groups and will need more space than a 10 gallon

Why not upgrade Lebron or Sassy to a 10 gallon? I'm sure they'd appreciate the extra space, and you could get some snails or shrimp to put in there with them!

Are you interested in other kinds of fish? You have options that don't include a Betta.Hi

I thought of upgrading Sassy to the 10 gallon. Unfortunately, LeBron passed away today and that’s why the 10 gallon is empty.Why not upgrade Lebron or Sassy to a 10 gallon? I'm sure they'd appreciate the extra space, and you could get some snails or shrimp to put in there with them!
Yes! I’m definitely interested in other kinds of fish.Are you interested in other kinds of fish? You have options that don't include a Betta.

How about guppies? We had 6 a while a go and they make the most amazing pets if you look after them well. ![]()

Oh! I'm sorry for your loss.
I don't recommend guppies- I'd say a minimum tank size is 15 gallon as I personally believe that they should be in groups of 5 or more ![]()
