Might I suggest buying a book and reading up on them, There are lots
of good books that can be found at Books a Million and also at Barnes
& Nobles that are a lot cheaper than if bought in a petstore. There is
just so much info that would have to be relayed it makes reading it in
print easier than typing it, and besides if your going to get into the
fish keeping hobby the books are worth every penny spent.

Fi8sh do not attracvt diseases anyhow. Most diseases in a fish tank
are induced by a careless hobbyist. They normally do not QT a fish
before adding it to the display tank and once inthe display tank fish
are not kept as they should be. There is no such thing as a fish that
induces disease its a fish keeper that creates it that would be a
much truer statement.

The reason I asked is I didn't want to recommend a fish that would get to be
a large size if all you have is a 5 or 10g tank.

There are few tropical fish prettier and hardier than the pearl gourami.
