Hey All,

My wife has a one of those tall octagon shaped tanks, it's only 10 gallons. She used to have 3 dwarf puffers in there, and it worked pretty well. Unfortunately they passed on due to some water problems. In any case, I'm going to take water from one of my tanks and start her's up again, and we're trying to decide what would be a good fit for the tank. The puffers probably aren't an option, we no longer have a large snail population to feed them, and they didn't do well with just blood worms. So, what kind of fish, or other aquarium creatures would do with in this tank?

Thanks!

Just don't overstock...the footprint on a hex is smaller than on a rectangular tank of similar volume...
