How many fish can I keep in a 20?

[firefish9]

I plan on a total of 6 fish is this okay?

 

[yerboy]

i was thinking more around 3 or 4
alot depends on size of fish tho.

 

[b0bby1]

3 or 4

list the fish and you're filtration. I have 6 or so in my 29g.... but most produce little waste (low bioload) and are bottom dwellers, also, major filtration.

yup as with any tank it depends on size and terratorility (sp) and bio load

I've got a fluval 304 on my tank with 8 fish...and i'm overstocked. But it's been that way for about a year

wat fish do u have, cause i have a 24 gallon wit 5 fish, and im not sure wat u exactly call the filtration i got, but i have a jaubert cavity, and i think its a wet and dry trickle thingy. im pretty sure im over stocked too, i have two clowns, a valentini puffer, a coral beauty and a six line wrasse, but my tanks about a year old too and ive never had any problems, like high ammonia and stuff that u usually get from overstocking.

I would say at most 4, and nothing bigger than 3 or so inches.

I would have a skilter filter rated up 55 gallons.
