the minimum you need for your current stock is a 75 gallon.
 
a kept my 9 babys in a 10 gallon till the were the size of a quarter.. then put them in a 50gallon and now they are in my cousins 150... i started with 9 and ended with 9. my cousin put 13 in a 55 and now he has only 7.
 
well because the foot print of a 120 which is 4'x2'x2', is not all that different than a 75 only 6 inches wider< which with a fish that doen't get that big, you shouldn't spend the money on a 120 for the extra 6" width, if 18" will do the job, what you should do is invest that in a tank with a foot print of 6'x18", the extra 2 feet make a huge difference, and you'd be able to add about 2 more rbp, to make a great shoal, so imo, go for a 125, rather than a 120. and 75 is the absoulte mimnimum< but you really don't wanna do that.
