This is about a 1.5 us gallon tank
Which means you're really limited to any kinda fish

You could maybe get away with max of 2 male guppies,that's it



hope that helps
Good luck

Plastic fish
there is no way that there is a heater that fits that tank or a filter that is cruel even for a betta
sorry! I got a 2.5 gallon bowl went to a store was told that was too small bought a good tank and fell head over heels in love.
The 1 inch per gallon rule is so dumb. It means the fish may just barely survive not delight you and make you smile like it should.

The "rule of thumb" is 1 inch of fish per gallon in an average aquarium. Do you have a filter? Thats more important at this point than a heater (although the weather is cooling). My suggestion? get 3-4 small "common" MALE guppies or the more rare Endlers. DO NOT BUY COMMERCIAL FANCY TAIL "SHOW" GUPPIES. They will probably die in anyones tank.

Remember it takes 4-8 weeks to cycle a new tank and filter. Go get 4 small male common guppies, add a teaspoon of salt per gallon, float the bag in tank, mix water in bag and put rubberband back, wait 20 minutes or so, release fish DO NOT OVERFEED for the first 8 weeks or ever. In 4 weeks, if no fish died, change 30% water and go buy a couple ghost shrimp or algae eating amano shrimp or red crystal shrimp, or a tiney algae eater like Otocinclus (they are delicate but cute).

Hi Conor, Sorry to say but about the only aquatic creatures who would be happy in such a small tank would be a couple of shrimps or snails & even then you will have your work cut out maintaining it at a healthy level-small tanks are extremely biologically unstable.

do you mean 6 litres or 6 us gallons?? 6 litres is too small for ANY fish. 6 us gallons you can just about have 3 male guppies at a push.
