Sounds cool... would love to see it. Sure you don't want any Endlers? They're very small and colorful.

maby, but im sticking to shrimp to start off. last time i was at aquarium depot, they had a really cool all planted tank with some endlers. it was in the room where they sell all of the tank shells and stands. theyre really cool little guys.

2.5 gallon planted tank.it's really crazy.for this tank you can keep hornwort,amazon,cabamba etc.and the fish you keep is neon and cardinal tetr,danio.

You are right about the endlers Brian. I keep lots of them but they would soon need another tank if you allowed even one female to get into a 2.5 gallon tank. I do keep some Heterandria formosa in a small tank and think they would do OK in a tank that small.
The cherry shrimp are also a good choice for a small tank.

cabamba is another kind of plant that will suit in your nano tank.

small tetras or pea puffers will work.
thats the plan for my 1g. lol

provided you are willing to put in the maintenance work, you can definitely keep fish in smaller tanks.

for the record: minimum tank sizes are recommended for a reason, and generally should be used when stocking. while putting fish in tanks smaller than recommended can be done successfully if done properly, it is not a recommended practice for novice hobbyists, and can have adverse long term effects on the fish if done wrong.
