Can you keep a pair of rams with a school of dwarf neon rainbows in a 29 gallon tank?

20 gallons might be pushing it in terms of space for the rainbows. They are VERY active and would probably appreciate more space.

I'm only asking because it is the same footprint, and only four inches shorter than a 29..

Yeah a 20 long could work. dwarf rainbows only get to about 2" max i believe.

Closer to 3". They are deeper bodied than most similar length fish though. And hyper...

I wouldn't put the Praecox Rainbows in anything less than a 3ft tank. They are very active fish.
