That would depend on the size of the fish. If they are all less than 2 inches long a 10 gallon tank would be OK.

There is one exception to the rule of "1 inch per fish" and that is frequent water changes. I use a 10 gallon as a grow-out tank. I currently have about 80 babies (African Cichlid Julidochromis Regani) in my ten gallon tank and do a 50% water change every other day (100% in four days).

Really depends on which fish. One inch per gallon is a general rule based on fish under 3 or 4 inches. You need to know the adult size of the fish and any aggresion issues. Also, you better have a filter and heater, and try to fishless cycle. Info can be found here http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=113861&hl=fishless+cycling
And five goldfish in a ten gallon is torture. One facy per fifteen. Commons need ponds.

provide it some decision. that is even plausible in a tw gallon tank. some small education tetras are all relaxing in a freshwater tank. 3 would properly be good. next i ought to come across a small rubber lip or bristlenose pleco. Sailfin pleco's would properly be classic, yet advance too quick and rather are not any further large algae eaters and are more effective of a scavenger. Then as 2 Cory for excellent scavenger bottom feeders. I wouldnt upload any stay bearers except you only upload some male guppies. They stay pretty small and are pretty fish. or you need to continuously bypass with saltwater. Your no longer making an recommendations-blowing reef tank, so relaxing deco is effective. you need to continuously upload a pair of youngster clowns or perhaps a chocolate chip starfish that is relaxing.

The one inch per gallon rule works fine, but most people forget it's. "One inch per gallon based on the fish's maximum size. Double this for goldfish." Note that as goldfish get huge you shouldn't keep 5 gold fish in 10 gallons.

depends on the size of fish there should be one gallon for every inch of fish so if you have a 10 gallon tank you can have 10 inches of fish.

5 goldfish can live in a little tank, so i would guess 5 goldfish could live in a ten gallon tank...

It depends on the type and size of the fish.
