P's for a 33 long

[Siemens2]

I wanted to use a 33 long for some red bellies as a grow out before moving them to a 75 or larger(still undecided on size). What would be a realistic number of P's and time they could be housed in the tank? Thanks in advance.

i started with one in a ten gallon then 2 in a twenty gallon, they only lasted about a month lol. But know i am thinking about putting 4 in my 55 gallon.

I started off with a 55 gallon with 3 they don't seem to be biting eachother or whatever

3 red bellies in a 33g long (48"x 12 1/2"x 13") should be fine until they reach at least 6", a few clumps of bushy plants will help minimize fighting.

Thanks for the responses. I think I'll start with three and go from there.

you could always add in another when u move them into ur 75g if u want 4 which would be the max for that tank if they are going to be in there for life
