guppies and neon tetras

Question
I am going to get guppies and neon tetras, i have a 21.5L tank. How many fish can i get AKA how much space does each fish need? help me Please respond asap

Answer
You can have up to 5 of each type of fish. This would equal 10 total fish. This is only because the fish you mentioned, guppies and neons, are small. If you get other fish you will have to get less. But if you plan on still getting guppies and neons you can get up to 5 of each. Now of course this does not mean you have to get 5 of each. If you get less, say maybe 4 of each fish, they may be more active. 5 each is maxing the tank out. This is how many the max should be but if you get a few less they probably would be more happy. I hope this helps.
