How many is ok?

[ph33nyx]

I'm just wondering how many CRS will go in an 8g tank? I have a female who's had two batches of babies. Now the first batch of babies are old enough and I have at least four berried females. The tank is a heavily planted Aqueon Evolve 8.
TIA

I read somewhere you could stock 100-150/gallon. I'll take some off your hands har har har

^+1. You're good. The only trouble would be overfeeding them...no matter how many there are, they don't eat as much as you'd think, so be careful not to pollute the water, and you'll be fine!

Thanks all for the advice. I usually only give a veggie stick every other day and I do two water changes a week to keep it clean.

I have a 8gal rcs tank about 200+ i feed them half of veggie rounds very day. Just makesure that they gonna finish it in 3-4 hours.

You could get 200+ in there with no issues as long as you have good vertical space in the tank with objects to build bio film

The babies have started to arrive, and it appears that I've got a golden in the midst of them.

Golden? Fry shrimps is kinda hard to keep, suggest to have sponge filter, lot of moss or anything for them to hide. Once it can survive... You arre successfully become a shrimp maker lol
