2 leos in 10 gallon?

TAloha19 Apr 01, 2004 01:47 AM

Is it okay to put 2 leos in a 10 gallon? Or is that too small?

I believe if they are juveniles it is fine. If not I think it might be OK, but I would recommend something a little bigger. A 15-20 gallon would be a better size.

I'm getting 3 juvies in a low 15 gallon. Once they get bigger I'm going to switch them to my 33 gallon. However, I am no where near as experienced as most of the leo owners on this forum. I’m just going by advice from them and things I have read on other sites.

If they are full grown - no. It is much to small. If they are still hatchlings it would be fine. Juvi's would be alright for a while, but you'd ought to get a larger tank once they were about 4-5 inches.
