6 fish at once is wayyyyy too many. 1 fish at a time unless it's a pair. Wait 1 week in between introductions ATLEAST.

It can be done BUT BUT you must build up the nitrifying bacteria before you you put them in When cycling your tank dose with ammonia to 8-10 ppm, most dose to 4 and even thats kinda high but it's better to err on the safe side
