Do you introduce them in 2s (for the same reason). i.e. add 2, then another 2 a week later and so on
Is there a max/recommended no. of fish per gallon? What happens if they have kids, are you supposed to remove some? |
In my experience Fish Tanks thrive on neglect.
If I was starting a tank today I would fill it up and let it run for a week and then put a Pleco in. A few days after that I would start to put the real fish in and just increase the population like that until I had enough in the tank.
