min tank size for RBP?

[yemista]

whats the min tank size for a RBP? can you keep just one in a 30g? can you keep more than one in a 30g?

Hi yemista, i think your tank could hold 1, as ive read someone u have to have 20g per RBP, i could be wrong here, but think thats around wot it is, hope this helps and am sure more people will give u advise on this soon

i think a 40 breeder is the absolute minimum tank size for a solo natt

 

[yemista]

how big do they get as adults?

 

[bumpylemon]

10-12inches....which mean if your tank is 12 inches wide then hmm thats not fair haha

55g min and he should be happy, put in plants wood and rocks

I know of people who keep one per 30g, but ideally I would suggest 40g breeder or 55g. The rule is 20g per rbp but that only comes in to play when talking about multiples of 3 or more.

i kept in a 29 gallon

i d k. 29 is small for a full grown.

when i moved my little babies from their 29gallon to a 75 gallon, i saw them grow at least an inch. more room + good filtration = bigger fish
