Hi i am getting a 105 litre tank.Im planning on keeping a betta fish,2 vampire shrimp and some snails and was wondering without crowding the tank up too much how many harlequins would be suitable considering my tank is (68,35,51cm) so more on the height size.

Hi Harvey, welcome !

I have a similar size tank although bit longer and lower. I have a Betta currently in with 9 Espei rasborra and 7 Bentosi tetra(also corrys and BN).

If your getting Harlequins maybe 10 - 12. And once your sure your Betta is chilled then maybe a few more. If you went for the espei's probably 16 or so.

It would be beneficial to have some large leaf plants for the beta and sight breaks. Worth considering.

Check my tank log out for current videos to see how the stock looks if you like 👍
