What do you think are the best fish for a 20-gallon tank?
I’ll start with one of my favorites: the Blue Emperor Tetra (photo below ). They’re active, colorful, and thrive in a small school, making them a great fit for this tank size.
What species have worked well in your 20-gallon setups? Feel free to share your experiences, tips, and photos!
I like rasboras and my current favorites are the purple harlequin rasboras! They’re fast growers and the purple really stands out against their silver bodies.
Make sure to get 4 or more as they are schoolers.
Almost any assortment of fish in a 20 gallon tank would be complimented with a couple Cory cats. They are active, comical, cute and will liven up your tank, not to mention helping with the clean up of any uneaten food.
