Harliquen raspboras, White cloud minnows, dwarf gouramis (1 per tank), bettas (1 per tank), small barbs like cherry barbs, small cories (dwarf would be great, a group of 3-4), various tetras...Lots of options for small tanks. of course, you could always just do a simple shrimp tank, those looks great and are simple (theoretically, haven't done it myself) to keep.

Any way you go though, try including live plants, your fish will thank you for it, and many are quite easy to grow

You should do a planted tank, a DIY CO2 system is cheap and easy and will help keep the tank stableized. Shrimp are great and active, and you could add endlers livebearers, guppies, or celestial pearl danios. Try googling nano fish, or go to Frank's to get some ideas. I have a beautiful tank with endless and cherry shrimp, and another that is ready for chili raspora, as soon as I can find some.

Yeah we just got 3 neon tetras to start. So I guess whatever would go good with them. I know alot of tetras would. We've never done a 10 gallon before. We went straight to the 29, 36, and now 75

You will need to increase the neon school size or they will not be happy.

I need to figure out better decorations for that tank. I have a couple fake plants at the moment. Ive had live plants in other tanks so ill probably do the same in this one. I wanna make it look good, and hav a cave n things but keep as much room for my fish to swim as possible. Ill have to look up some pictures and get some ideas
