5 gallon tank

Question
Hi,
How many fish can go into a five gallon tank?
So far I have 5 fish in my five galon aquarium, a small plant in the corner and a fish decoration in the other corner. But there is ALOT of room left, I was wondering how many more fish I could put in it. Iam also going to add one or two more plants, so its not so 'open water'. Please let me know!
Thanks, Brittany

Answer
Hello Brittany,

This tank is already over crowded, You can only put one inch of fish for every gallon. So for example you could only put 5 small neon tetras in your tank, any more and that could kill them all in a madder of days.
