Thank you! I'd like to get as many as I can both for the fish's welfare (to get as many for a shoal) and my own personal aesthetic pleasure, but I'm a really strict stocking person (as a pond goldfish keeper) so I don't want to overstock my tank. A rough kind of estimate would be great!

Thank you! Unfortunately my LFS only sells juvenile rainbows so I won't be able to easily tell the gender. How many rainbows in total do you think I could have? I like the blue rainbows so I might just go with one big school of those, but I'm not sure how many I can have in my 240l tank.

Hello! So, I sold my previous tank (180l) after putting my Shubunkin in the pond and am soon upgrading to a 240l Fluval Roma. The dimensions are 120cm long, 50cm high, 40cm width. I was hoping to keep rainbowfish, especially the Lake Kubutu. I know they are a shoaling species and should be kept...

Thank you very much for your in-depth response, Byron, it's much appreciated. I wanted to do some background research and get my facts straight before going to my LFS so I know what's suitable and what isn't for my tank size, parameters and species compatibility. The Pearl Gouramis are pretty...

To cut a long story short, I'm an experienced goldfish keeper who currently maintains a goldfish pond and a grow-out tank. When my current babies are big enough to go in the pond I plan to change up the tank and either go for tropicals (ideally, as I've never kept tropical before) or fancy...
