So having researched a bit online and spoken to two apparently reputable independent fish shops I today bought a 25 litre tank, heater, filter and light plus some gravel. Now I have googled some more it seems that I can't keep much in my new tank. The first shop said about 15 small fish would be fine in this size tank. I was sceptical so went to another shop who said we could have three or four very small fish (can't remember name), a few bumblebee goby (because I mentioned they were cute!), a couple of shrimps and then finally add a betta (male fighting fish?) at the end. We were happy with this but Google suggests fish won't be happy in this tank. I know I am hopelessly naive but any advice would be gratefully received. Can I have any sort of worthwhile set up in this tank (i.e something relatively nice to look at that my five year old can feed and my two year old can shout "hello fish" at occasionally? I would hugely appreciate any advice.

Help me get the right set up for my small tank - fear I have been duped.
