Yes it is...

gar man, if you are serious, sorry for the joke. Scroll down in this forum and look at some recommendations that were already made for similar sized tanks. If you have questions after that, feel free to ask.

Lets see, black banded sunfish, swamp darters, pygmy sunfish, pygmy killie fish, madtoms, dollar sunfish, lined killie fish, banded sculpin, log perch, blue spotted sunfish, mudminnows, blue fin killie, some of these come to mind for any smaller aquarium.

and wat about the bullhead?

No, they are to big. Stick with what Moontanman said.

Fish that stay small, a 40g is not a large tank.

What ever you want dude, I like to keep lots of small fish in large aquariums, in a biotope type set up. you are you do what you want within the limits of sanity.
