Hi all,

Am currently preparing a 29gal tank for some Tanganyikan Cichlids. I am planning on getting some multies along with julies. As it says in the title, could you tell me how many shells I should get for 6 of them. I have heard different opinions on the internet, so am looking for some clarity. I figured you guys would be the best to turn to! If you could reply I would be very grateful.

Kind Regards,

Blakers

Get 2 bags of the escargot shells. You can find them on Amazon.

Some people say 100 for multifasciatus.

100 shells for 6 multies?

 

[DJRansome]

They like 2 or more layers. FWIW.

You'll a lot more than 100 multies once they start breeding mate.

Totally agree. The Multi's will bury most of them, and you can't have too many.
