how many fish fit in 29tank?
anybody give me an advice how many fish or what kind of fish fit in 29 gallon tank?
thanks!! |
Not many, it does depend on the size of them. Of course you can't put a big Tang in there.
The rule of thumb I will tell you is 1 inch of fish per gallon. Again, please research what you want, as many fish just won't survive/flourish in a small tank, however there are alot a great looking fish that will. I like using http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/a...plies.cfm?c=15, it has alot of pics and gives you the information you need to make a decision. Have fun!!! |

I've had this debate with lots of people and what it really comes down to is: it depends.
Do you have a sump? Skimmer? Lots of live rock? Do you have a heavy bioload from corals? Are the fish you are planning on free swimming or bottom dwelling? How big do they get? Right now I am running my 40g without a sump (being rebuilt) with several colonies and I had 8 fish (most I gave away when I moved recently) BUT they were all mostly smaller species AND they were a mix of free swimming and bottom dwelling AND they are not agressive. So... it depends. As a rule of thumb I wouldn't go more than 0.5" of fish per gallon. |
In my 34g cube I have a bicolor blenny, 2 chromis, neon goby and a royal gramma. I'm done adding fish I think but I may add a bangaii cardinal as my last if I happen upon one.
