I don't have any diamonds but was thinking of adding 6 to my tank. They are so awesome looking when they swim by real fast.

New Aquarium and loving it!

The more tank space the better, but a minimum for a school of 6 would be about 15-20gal long.

that is plenty of room they will enjoy the 75 gal. and you could maybe even add more once they move in depending on the tankmates.
