10G with cherry barbs

[Wakube]

I have a 10 gallon that currently has 5 cherry barbs in it. Have a aquaclear 20 for a filter and do about a 33% water change every week. Just wondering if I'm somewhere near my limit or if I can get a few more cherry barbs?

No more. I would even say look for an upgrade. A 20 gallon long would be much better.

Yeah I would have to agree I had 6 in mine (5F, 1M) and it didnt look to me like they appreciated the lack of space. They like to run alot.
Long story short, the male went nuts and killed off a couple, then Ick took a couple more. I'd just stay with five and enjoy them.
