Could I keep brichardis in a 20 long aquarium? I would like to breed them. How many could I get, an what should I expect to pay?

I think a 20g would be fine. If you get fish old enough to sex then just get one male and one female. Young fish, get 5 or 6 and allow them to pair up. You will have to remove the extra fish though.
Brichardi's have interesting spawning techniques. They allow the fry from one batch to stick around and help with the fry of a newer batch. Lovely fish. One of the ones that someday I will have. :c10:

that tank would be okay for breeding.

i bought mine for 6 bucks, but a breeding pair would be $9. i found them to be slow growers since i bought mine at a young age
