My mum has given me a fish tank which is 2ft by 1ft by 1ft (cant remember the height) and I'm looking for inspiration, it doesn't have a filter or heater but I will buy those once I've worked out what fish I want and what they'd need. It has a lid.
I have a 5 year old DD who absolutely adores fish and 10 year old DS who couldn't care less as he's sulking that I won't let him use it to keep a scorpion in, having finally got DD to accept that its a tank, not the sealife center and therefore her original suggestions aren't happening (these included starfish, a shark, rays and an octopus) she says she would like small bright coloured fish and maybe a crab. I know I'll be the one cleaning the tank and feeding them, the fish are mainly for me but as it will be in the living room i thought I'd let the DC have some input.
I'm only planning at the second so am open to either coldwater or tropical fish, I will do a lot of research before buying anything, I'd just like some suggestions to get me started.

If you had a 2ft fish tank what would you keep in it?
