How many zebra danios can you fit in a 15 gallon tank?

Question

i am geting them on the 30th

Answer 1

You could probably jam around 1800, possibly more in there.  Of course, that's with no water.

If you're planning on a nice aquarium, about 12.  It depends on the dimensions of the tank.  A 15 long is better for danios and other fast swimming fish.

Answer 2

i believe 25

Answer 3

Zebra Danios grow to be 2.5" long. If they are the only fish you are planning to house in the tank, you could get away with 5-7.

A good combination for your size tank would be 5 Danios, plus a Betta, some plants, a few shrimp and a snail or 2.

If you have not done so, be sure to read up on cycling your tank before you buy any fish.

Happy fish-keeping!

Answer 4

i would say about 0-10

you shouldn't cramp them in such a small place

and they grow about 1 1/2 inches

Answer 5

i was told to keep it to 1inch of fish per gallon and since they are small I would say 20-28 to be on the safe side.

Answer 6

0-25 but that all you can have
