After my new tank cycles... how many can I add once it’s cycled?
 
Go slow, at first. No need to rush. 2, no more than 3. Then as your tank and water age with time, you can slowly add a few more at a time. You have to give the tank a chance to multiply the bacteria that breaks down the wastes. Hope this helps. Just be patient.
