    Research is good but as mentioned above and you already probably know there are always events that happen that you do not count on. If you feel good about what you have found then I say try it out!

    Good Luck!

    Bunk...particularly with a younger tank...

    Probably more like 1" of fish per 10 gallons of water in tank for 1st year.


    Let your water params tell you when (AND IF!) to add more fish.

    Test daily and if completely stable for a month, try adding another...

    If you don't you are risking losing entire lot.


    Sorry,
