Amount of fish in a tank depend on it's size and breed , if it is a medium Biorb then you can store up to 10 fish of 1inches and a bit. If you're planning of getting tropical fish, then install a heater and put 2 - 4 fish in at first. You can therefore add more gradually.

If you are new to fish. Leave the tank for a recommended 2 weeks, then take a sample from the place you got your tank from. It should be fine.

I have a10g tank how many fish can I put in my tank.

Rule of thumb one inch of adult fish per one gallon in the tank. Just measure the head and the body, do not include the tail in this measurement.

For a 10-gallon tank you can have 10 inches of adult fish without the tail.

The tank size you mention is not large enough for any kind of goldfish. The rule of thumb for keeping any kind of fish is 1 inch of fish needs 1 gallon of water. The tank you mention will actually hold less than 1.5 gallons because tanks are never filled to the brim. So you can rule out any species of fish that grows larger than 1 inch in body length. Some people would house a Betta splendens (Siamese fighter) in a tank of that size but I would not advocate anyone using a tank of that small size for any fish keeping project.

The basic rules of fishkeeping are as follows. 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs to have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. If you follow the above rules your fish will stand a chance of surviving provided you keep them at the right temperature and feed them properly

How many fish fit in a 2.5 gallon tank?

You can keep one male or female betta in 2.5 gallons, but any other fish would be uncomfortable, because most other fish that would fit would prefer to be in a school of 6 or more, and there simiply isn't room. Invertebrates would be better inhabitants for a tank of that size. I would recommend red cherry shrimp, ghost shrimp, or any other variety of shrimp, as well as any variety of snail. There are many colorful species of snail such as apple snails and red ramshorns. One African dwarf frog would also be happy in that tank.


How many inches of fish to 120 liters of water?

The "inch per gallon" rule is a very crude method and should not be relied on heavily. A slightly better method is the "cubic inch per gallon" rule, which would let you fit about 30 cubicinches if fish (imagine each fish as a solid cylinder).You will be able to comfortably stock about 30-40 small-bodied fish (small tetras), or 20-30 medium-bodied fish (zebra danios, medium tetras). Or, you could fit 3-6 larger fish, depending on the species. Use your best judgment and look for fish forums where you can get opinions on the specific stock list you put together to be sure none of the fish will be aggressive to each other and that the tank won't be too crowded. Make sure you look at the adult size of each species; it might not be overstocked while they are all juveniles, but when they grow up it may be.
