How many fish?

You might want to think about adding a sponge filter/bag of seachem matrix/HOB filter to your existing tank and letting it seed so you can start a hospital tank or even your next tank in the future. Just adds a bit of insurance. I deal with a few people I trust that take great care of their stock and im also guilty of not always quarantining my fish but one day it's gonna bite me and my fish will pay the ultimate price. Fish don't necessarily have to be sick either from your local LFS but just the stress alone from bagging them up and getting them home can cause an outbreak. I have a few tanks with $1000's of dollars worth of fish in them and if I was gonna add extra breeders to those even from the same source at this point I won't take any chances. I should use that same philosophy with all my tanks but impatience can and does sometimes get the best of me.
The only problem is, I don't have enough space to set up a whole new tank. I do have a 70l in the shed but no filter, heater or substrate. I may not end up getting any new fish once the wood and plants arrive
