How many Giant Danios can you place in a 14 gallon tank without over crowding the tank?

1 fish inch per gallon as a general rule. You can tempt fate and try to generate more airation in your tank to increase this number, but over time youll do more maintenance and such with the increased fish load.
Iirc the Giant Danios are 2-3 inches long? 6-7 if they are 2 inches long. |

Yea 1 inch per gallon is the going rule. Most times if you go over that, some will die and if you don't notice right away, it'll kill off the whole tank, due to bacteria. Keep the filters clean and exchange 25% of the water each month and you'll be golden.

Thanks, I think I'll get a bigger tank, I'd like to get maybe 8 - 10 giant danios, but I don't want to over crowd the tank.
