Question by Sarah: Are tropical fish really hard to take care of?
Are they worth the extra cash??? I’m thinking about getting my boyfriend and bigger fish tank for Christmas, but right now he has a smaller one with freshwater fish. Tropical fish are a lot cooler looking and theres more variety.

Question by stranger 292929: Any ideas on what kind of tropical fish to buy?
I brought a 10 gallon fish tank for my office and i want to know what kind of tropical that i can buy to fit in the tank. I really don’t like very small fish. If you can provide me with a link that would be great.

Answer by Ianab
Unfortunatly a 10gal tank does restrict your choice to fairly small fish.

But I would suggest getting either a Betta or a Dwarf Gourami, and a small group of Cory catfish.

Answer by Cavalier girl
it depends on the plants really. some need alot of lighting like swords and some need just normal aquarium lighting. BUT some need special substrate to grow in. id just stick with some java moss on a piece of drift wood and then some planted java ferns. and some anubias nana petite because they only get a few inchs high. just beware of snails who might hitch a ride on one of the plants the plants you buy. Their eggs and larvae can come on the new plants so check under leaves. also algea might grow on the plants so a otocinculus dwarf catfish or red cherry shrimp will gladly clean it off and not harm your plants.
