But even then, there are very few fish that can safely thrive in a tank this size, and most of those that can are schooling fish that would need more fish than can healthily be housed in this size tank.
There are a few nano-fish that could be housed in a 5 gallon tank, but most of those are pretty fragile, and susceptible to the kinds of fluctuating water parameters you're likely to get with a 5 gallon tank (see above), unless you're very careful and/or knowledgeable.
Also, the filters that come with these tanks SUCK. And the 5 gallon kit doesn't come with the heater that most tropical fish would need. For $10 more, the 10 gallon tank kit would be easier for a beginner, or better yet, for $20 more the 20 gallon tank kit.
And of course, before you invest in fish, be sure to take a little time to learn at least the basics of safe fishkeeping. Start by googling the aquarium nitrogen cycle.
