Hello there!<br><br>Well I asked my mom for a fish yesterday and she said no. But I made a deal with her, if I show responsibility for 2 weeks then I can have a fish! <br><br>So, I need to know what breed I should get (but not beta I have bad luck with them :cry: ) Im thinking about a neon tetra. But preferably something that does not die easily and also freshwater (unless you convince me that saltwater isn't hard to manage). I will be keeping it in a small fish tank in my room. Also any name suggestions would be great.<br><br>-edit-<br>How about a guppy?<br><br>Thanks in advance :D

    Tetras are schooling fish and should not be kept alone. How big is the tank? Zebra Danios are fairly hardy but they are also schooling fish. <br><br>What about a fancy goldfish? I'm thinking about getting some of them! :D<br><br>Congrats on possibly getting a fish! :D
    Please PM if I win.

    Goldfish should have 10 gallons per fish, just saying. How about guppies? But just get the males because they breed like crazy. They are pretty sturdy and very pretty.

    I think the main question should be what size of tank do you have? Tank size can help us to suggest what you should get.

    There really isn't much that is suitable for a 2.5 gal. A single betta is best for that size. Goldfish need a good 5-10 gals each. Most smaller fish need to be in schools. I'm not up one a lot of fish so maybe some others can chime in.

    well for 1 most freshwater tropical fish need a heater and filter the only one that doesn't is a betta other then that the fist will have a hard time surviving at room temperature. Right now I have a 30 gallon and 2 10 gallons that are tropical freshwater fish Danios are by far one of the best fish but can be kind of spastic but I still love them. The 10 gallon would be best if you want to do something other then bettas. I have more info if you want it just pm me.
