What size of ISO tank?

ninjasgorawr · 06-25-2008, 03:11 PM

Hello all- I am planning on getting 3 hermies for my 10 gallon tank. What size would you suggest for an ISO tank? (or do I need one?)

I hate 10G and use them for ISO--so go get a 20L you will be very happy with it and keep the 10G for ISO

Ok, Thanks!

A 20L? How many gallons is that?

20 gallons but instead of it begin tall it is long.

Oh, in that case I have a 29L glass tank in our garage. I also have a 10L tank. I highly doubt that my parents would let me keep a 29L tank in my room -- I'll even have to go through a lot of arguements for them to let me use the 10L tank. Do you think a 10L tank is okay for 2 hermies?

yes a 10 gal would be fine

my rule for hermits:
2 gal per small
3per med
5 per large
and aleast 10 per jumbo

use nothing smaller than a 10 gal

Thanks -- both of mine are small (Kauai is almost micro) so I think they'll be okay.
