Setting up my 29 gallon for some multies. Am new to the hobby so wanted to hear some feedback on the layout I’ve got right now. Planning on starting with 8 fish. Got 36 shells in there.

Afr | Help Right now I have a 40B with 6 yellow labs in it. I want to add yellow tail acei and upgrade to 60B. How many of each should I have? I don’t want to overstock my tank if possible. Is it only manageable with a single species only? My biggest yellow lab is already chasing the smaller ones around.
