Fish for Eclipse System 3

[Alexandria C.]

I have an Eclipse System 3 (3 gallons) that was a home for a betta.
Sadly, he died today. I'm not sure that I want another betta at this
time. I think I want to have the tank unheated and have something new in
it. However, I can't think of what I could put in a little tank. Any
suggestions?

I have larger tanks (and pond) and have kept a variety of fish. I just
don't know what to do with my little desk tank now that it's empty. :(
It's hard to think small....

Thanks,
Alexandria C.

Four white clouds would do fine. Try to get two pair. The males will be
displaying constantly with their red fins.

Thanks, Eric. I love white clouds. I used to keep them in my 55 gallon
and let them breed like crazy. :) Hmm... wonder if they'll reproduce in
a small tank like this. Could be cichlid snacks.

Thanks again!

Oh, they'll spawn, but there may not be enough space away from the filter
intake for the babies to make it.
