Straight from the tap
60 × 30 × 30 cm · 54 l
Most Lithuanian tap water runs about 20 °dH, and most stocking advice online quietly assumes something softer. This tank wants what your tap already gives you, which means water changes are a bucket and a dechlorinator rather than a project.

This is the overlap of every species in it — the narrower it is, the less room you have to drift. Check it against your tap before you buy anything: tap water tool
The stocking
Why it works
Endlers are livebearers: hard, alkaline water is where they come from and where their colour holds. Be ready for the consequence — a mixed group breeds continuously, and within a year you will be giving fish away or keeping males only. Males-only is a genuinely good option here and the colour is the same. The nerites handle algae without adding anything to the bioload worth counting.
