Recommendations for a 5.5 gallon tank?

[Erhan]

Hey everybody. I am currently setting up a 5.5 gallon Fluval Chi aquarium to keep on my desk. If you have ever seen one it looks pretty neat, it is seriously pretty. I was originally thinking that a white comet goldfish, or two would look really nice in there. But I'm afraid for the size two goldfish wouldn't be able to thrive in there. I'm scared that even with regular water changes it might not even be ideal for one. Any advice? Do you think there is enough room in there? Or should I plan on getting a different fish, and if so, any recs?

Not enough room for goldfish. How about a Betta? Or a small school of very small fish, perhaps something from the top end of this list: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/102401-tetra-size-list/

how bout 5-6 tetra's any types really (i personally like neon's plus there pretty cheap) with a couple snails that would be cool.

The small Danios are a pretty and an active fish. You could do a few of those. They stay fairly small.
