How many Rosy Red feeders I can put in a 15 gallon?? Would 12 be too much???

Can I just use a Sponge Filter??
 
How fast are they being fed as food? I usually ha about 8-10 in a 2.5 gallon, of course they didn't spend a lot of time there, they were fed to my water snake. If there not to be used as feeders, I would only get 4-6 in a 15 gal. They get pretty big 3+.
 
Being in the comet family they produce more ammonia than other fish. I would get a small HOB filter like a small Whisper or Penguin.
 
I might keep them in the 15 gallon for awhile coz I want to feed them first and make sure they are not sick, then I will feed it to my Oscar and turtles
