So I got a 90ltr tank (Fluval roma90) which after cycling I will need to stock.
It will be over filtered (either a FLuval U3 or U4) and planted and converted into gradiual brackish conditions finishing 1.05-1.08.
How many figure 8's can I have? would 1 or 2 be possible as it will be a species only tank with snails.

Re: Figure 8 Tank Stocking
2 F8 for 90l would be OK
I keep 2 of them in a 30gal tank

That's 20g, so you can keep 1 F8 in there & maybe a trio of bumblebee gobies.

OMG sorry, : 90l = 23.7754 gal(US Liq)
I was sure that 90l is a 30 gal tank
In that case, just like PP mentioned 1 is max
