that's about 23 gallons?
I would have suggested a dojo loach, but that's too small for them.
someone else may have a better suggestion for you.

Temps would be about right, 'subtropical', and 'White Cloud Minnows', but the water movement would have to be just about doubled.

thank you i was thinking of hillstream loaches but was nae sure how much more water movement i would need but that information is great. i will wait til my tank is maturer and add a couple with an extra pump and some stones.
