How Many Fish in a QT?

[BizTodd]

Hi Everyone,

I just order 12 1.5" rainbowfish and 4 1" BN Plecos. I have a 29 Gallon QT that has been cycled. I don't mind doing water changes often, but do you guys think they will put out a heavy bioload?

if you don't overfeed you shouldn't have a heavy bioload imo with the fish for awhile. How long will the fish be in quarantine?

If I am patient, I like to quarantine for a month. My wife usually is ready after 2 weeks.
