In a 29-gallon tank you can comfortably keep about 6–24 Harlequin Rasbora. As a schooling species, never keep fewer than 6.
Why
Stocking is driven by adult size and waste output, not just fish count. Harlequin Rasbora reaches about 2" with a moderate bioload, and needs 72–80°F water at pH 6–7.5. Always cycle the tank and test water before adding livestock.
