I'm in the process of establishing a 20g long tank. I just moved and brought my year old male swordtail who’s been on his own all summer into this tank with all his old filter media and I’d like to put in a school of maybe 7-8 serpae or skirt tetras (depending on local availability). I've never kept schooling fish before and I don’t want to add them all at once and get a giant ammonia bloom but I’m nervous to add too few and have the fish be stressed and aggressive in too small of a school.
Any recommendations for an introduction schedule? or experience introducing schools to relatively new/lightly stocked tanks?
