Regular Member The Fish Lady Posted March 19, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted March 19, 2020 My butterfly telescope goldfish fry are about 2.5 weeks old. I have about 40 ish, not sure, it is difficult to count them. They are in a 10 gallon tank and I am doing frequent water changes, but I wanted to know how many of them I can raise successfully in this size tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member mikroll Posted March 19, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted March 19, 2020 Greetings Miss Fishlady, My recommendation from experience is that you would be best with not more than SIX for first few months and then move up to better quarters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member The Fish Lady Posted March 19, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 19, 2020 Thanks Mikroll. Yeah I knew a 10 gallon wasn't going to be good enough for too long.... I currently have a 45 gallon with 4 butterfly telescope (the parents and two other females), a 45 gallon with tropical community fish, and a 20 gallon with waaaaay too many danio fry, but I guess I will need another tank! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
