Since a 12 gallon tank will actually hold considerable less when in use (Tanks are never filled to the brim and usually have some water displaced by gravel etc) The maximum amount of fish would be less than 12 inches. (around 10 inches) The basic rules of sucessfull fishkeeping are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Folloe the above and your fish will stand a chance of survival. Fail to follow them and I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will live a shortened lifespan.
