3 Zebra Danios
10 guppies
2 African Dwarf Frogs
3 Neon Tetras

Advice:
Don't go for the simplest setup just because its your first aquarium. Read on it and get all you need to make it look the best. Also get a tank that is the biggest that can fit in your room because you WILL want bigger.

About Yourself:
Just an average guy who likes fish and I am starting to get ready to expand to a 29 gallon tank.
Fish Kept:
. Neon Tetras- These have been the hardest to keep well. They seem to be more prone to disease then some of my other fish.
Harlequin Rasboras- These are great little fish that school together nicely and seem to be disease resistant
Cardinal Tetra- looks like the Neon’s and will school with them but it seems much hardier and as the Tetras pass-a-way I am replacing with cardinals.
Amano Shrimp- I started with Ghost shrimp but found their life spans to be limited. My Amano shrimp are over a year old and doing fantastic. These are great additions the aquariums and have a good personality.
Corals/Plants:
I have had great luck with various swords and plants that cling to rocks. I have not lost a plant for the entire year, even with running an underground filter. If you are running an underground filter I would consider keeping the plants in their baskets or in the basket substrate.
Tank Size:
10 gallons
Advice:
Some say it is harder to deal with a smaller tank and they can be right. Frequent water changes are the way to go. I had a black algae problem at first but found that by adding snails and cleaning the water conditions quickly improved.
