I would say as many as 10, if you feed lightly, are diligent with the water changes, filter well (rinse your filters anytime you do a water change!), and regularly supplement your biofilter (NICycle). Good Luck!

They like a thicket of that in my aquarium and higher parts of the tank are in better use for your fish. More than 3 and no more than 10 seems to be good number.

I say 10 is okay, but that's my opinion. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
