	Two Yellow Labs in a 29g
bobb Small Fry Posts: 1 Kudos: 1 Votes: 0 Registered: 26-Jun-2005	Are two Yellow Labs OK in a 29g? Since I would be only buying two, it will not be possible to ensure a male/female pair. Thanks for all help. Bob

I would say that as they get older they will require some more space but this may work well for you if you plan a bigger tank for the future. This way your labs can put on some size before you add aggresive tanks mates when you get your bigger tank. chris
