F8s in a 20H bowfront

[andrew14]

Two questions:

1) I've read several different things about what salinity F8s should be in, from freshwater to 1.005 to 1.012. Which one is it, brackish or not, light brackish or medium brackish?

2) How many F8s could I put in a 20H bowfront tank moderately planted?

Thanks!

1) 1.005-1.008 light brackish
2) one

Right on, Boxermom.

yep yep Boxermom hit it on the head. They live in light brackish (1.005 - 1.008) and you need atleast 15gallons of water for each individual F8.
