| Hiya, and welcome to the forum.
As your tank is on the small size, then how about some of the smaller shoaling fish - male guppies for example are colourful and would be great in a tank that size.

| Since its a small tank I would advice you to get some neon tetras. | |

| hiya shera I like neons but they seem to be a weak bunch. A bit like guppies I think you have to buy a bunch of them and just hope some survive for any length of time. | |

| My mum has a 20liter biorb cube which is also 'taller' than it is wide (apparently not a great idea for fish so id suggest an airpump if you dont already have one) She has male guppys - which are great little characters - if you get a good stock - some are weak and die easily - very iinbred sadly but dont let this deter you. Neons are nice too BUT tend to stick to the bottom of the tank - so the two together are are a great mix - they wont bother each other in anyway. Cherry barbs are also an option - as too are checkered barbs (no more than 6 of each tho in that sized tank) - and when the tank is well established (6months to a year) you could add a few otos too (little tiny catfish) Another option for a tiny fish that is very colourful is something called an Endler - they are like dwarf guppy - very tiny but oh so pretty but maybe a consideration for when the tank is fully cycled and stable - as too are Galaxy Rasbora (sometimes called celestial danios) - they are quite expensive and were hard to come by but im seeing lots around these days - these too are very pretty little fish Hope this helps | |

| I would suggest buying some guppies for your little tank. They are very colorful as well. | |

| Go for the neon tetras and guppies because your tank is a small size one | |
