I have a 10 gallon aquarium that currently contains two guppies (male), two glofish, and three neon tetras. I've had the tank since June. The tank seems somewhat "empty" when I look at it but I keep hearing that you should only have one inch of fish per gallon. I've looked up how big all the fish I have will grow and got that the tetras will (together) equal about three inches, the glofish (together) four inches and the guppies (together) three inches, which adds up to exactly ten inches. The tank still looks empty to me though and I'd really like a few more fish, especially some sort of algae eaters or ghost shrimp (Even though they're not fish). Would a few more be absolutely out of the question? And if not, would a certain kind be best?
If it's needed:
The tank has no live plants, only plastic. (Which leads me to another little question: are live plants better or is it just personal preference?)
I have an Aqua-tech 5-15 gallon filter.
The tank is usually kept between 78-80°F.
I have Aquarium Salt added to the tank.
I usually change about 1/3 of the water at least twice a week.
If I forgot something you need to know, just ask.
