5? damn... ok. well the main 2 things you need to know is they will eat anything they can fit in their mouths... anything... and the second thing is they get biiiiiiiiig. count on them reaching 2 feet within the first year... 3 feet by the 3rd year

 

[haynchinook334]

agreed ^^ they grow fast the first year, then slow after that. but they do eat ALOT!!!!! keep water clean due to the fact they eat and poo and poo while they eat. ( the messiest fish i have ever kept) FILTERATION IS KEY, the more the marrier.

Thanks for the information,guys...the baby RTC are really cute..so that's how it happened(i mean i bought 5 of them).....i've just read some article about this tank buster from here. Thanks again for the infomation.... But...what's a good filtration system requires...??? Can somebody teach me?? I'm using a 4ft x 1 1/2ft x 2 1/2ft(h) tank...& how many gallons of water is that???

You're tank is about 110g. For 5 RTCs, you're going to have to get some pretty heavy duty filters. I'd get 2 FX5 for 5 RTCs in a 110g.
