Sweet. is it possible to keep rbps in a 55g?

absolutely, i would just limit it to about three of them.

my first rbp were in a 55 gal, i had 5 in there. they seemed fine never any major problems. it was too many for that size though.
 
Thanks for all the pics man. I'm enjoying watching the progress. It's like a live journal.

My first batch i kept 5 in a 55 for 8 months before i moved and had to get rid of them. Never had any problems but would've needed to upgrade within 6 months or so
 
your welcome. its my first that i have raised from eggs, so im trying to learn and document the progress. i have 2 more pairs spawning as we speak... their keeping me busy.

That make 5 total spawns? Or just 4?

well i lost count i think 8 total. the first couple i didnt think were fertilized they stayed white so i left them in the tank. the plecos ate them. and then a found a couple small ones i guess someone was eating on them too. then the last couple i have taken pics and documented all of it. but ive lost a bunch through trail and error (ie.bad heater,too powerful of pump and tank transfer). im learning slowly but surely.
