How many apistogramma can I keep in a 20g long without aggression issues?



I want to keep 2 different species, maybe 1 male and 2 female of each.

Neil.

It really depends on how the tank is decorated. Personally I wouldn't put more than a trio in a 20L. I guess it would be possible to add 2 trios "without aggression issues", but the tank would be so densely decorated that you (and the fish) wouldn't see much.
