Minimum Tank Size for ASFs? Empty Minimum Tank Size for ASFs?

Post by armlessphelan Sun 04 Apr 2021, 12:43 am

I have a male mouse in a 20 gallon high tank. He was in a 10 gallon with a topper, but I upgraded him about two weeks ago when my Leopard Gecko got a new 20 gallon long. He seems happy enough by himself. However, I found out that a pet shop 2 counties over carries ASFs and I thought it might be nice to get him a couple of female friends to hang out with. (If they don't get along with him, I could easily move him back into the 10 gallon as it's sitting empty right now.)

Would two ASFs and one male mouse be comfy in his current tank? Or should I just leave him be since he seems perfectly fine playing by himself?

I'm not sure on the sizing (they're very uncommon pets still unfortunately), but just thought it would be good to mention that the ASF's should be young to be introduced to a fancy; ideally between 8-12 weeks if I recall correctly. Remember to ask the store! Smile
